NOTICE. 


The  reader  is  earnestly  requested  to  refer  to  "  THE  Supplement  "  before 
consulting  the  Work.  A  few  words  are  all  that  are  required  in  addition  to 
the  original  Preface.  The  learned  and  accomplished  friends  whose 
co-operation  I  then  gratefully  acknowledged,  have  been  equally  kind 
and  obliging  in  this  re-issue.  One,  Mr.  Stephen  Tucker,  has  since 
become  Somerset  Herald,  ahd  has  been  succeeded  as  Rouge  Croix  by 
my  son,  Mr,  H.  Farnham  Burke,  F.S.A.,  who  has  rendered  me  essential 
service  in  this  edition.

PREFACE. 


The  General  Armory  first  appeared  in  the  year  1842,  and  was  most 
iavourably  received.  The  long  period  that  has  since  elapsed  has,  by  the 
acquisition  of  vast  materials,  tended  to  the  completion,  and  it  is  hoped  to 
the  perfection  of  the  original  work.  Founded  on  the  Heralds'  Visitations. 
the  County  Histories,  and  the  heraldic  writings  of  Dugdale,  Camden,  Guillim, 
Edmondson,  Berry,  Nicolas,  and  others,  the  present  edition  of  the  Armory  is, 
I  venture  to  assert,  the  most  comprehensive  Collection  of  Arms  ever  brought 
together,  embracing,  as  it  does,  some  60,000  coats.  The  most  minute 
and  watchfdl  editing,  rendered  necessary  by  the  technical  nature  of  the 
blazons,  has  been  bestowed  upon  it.  Every  line  required  to  be  closely 
examined,  and  each  heraldic  description  to  be  correctly  entered.  Despite, 
however,  of  this  anxious  attention,  errors  will  doubtless  be  detected;  but 
these  will,  it  is  confidently  expected,  meet  with  the  reader's  indulgence. 
The  work  comprises  the  Armorial  Bearings  of  the  Noblemen  and  Gentlemen 
of  the  British  Empire,  and  the  various  Coats  that  are  to  be  seen  in  churches 
and  family  mansions,  together  with  those  traceable  on  Seals,  Deeds,  Wills^ 
and  Monumental  remains. 

History  and  genealogy,  linked  as  they  are  with  Heraldry,  are  illustrated 
and  in  some  iastances  explained,  by  the  Science  of  Arms. 
-^   Heraldry   arose  with  feudalism,  attained  its  full   growth  iu  mediaeval 
times,   and   now,   in  the    19th   century,   is  prized  by  all  who    can   show 
honourable  ancestry,  or  wish  to  found  honourable  families. 

Valuable  as  the  assistance  has  been  which  I  have  derived  fi-om  the 
authorities  who  have  written  upon  the  subject,  the  result  of  my  endeavours 
would  be  incomplete  were  it  not  for  the  generous  aid  afibrded  me  by  many 
distinguished  friends. 

To  George  Burnett,  Lyon  King  of  Anns,  my  deepest  obligation  is 
due.  With  energy  imtiring,  with  liberality  unrestiicted,  and  with  kindness 
unwearied,  he  has  done  for  this  book  and  for  Scotland  generally  what  has 
never  before  been  attempted.  The  heraldry  of  the  historic  kingdom  over 
which  his  jurisdiction  extends  is,  thanks  to  his  learning  and  abihty,  fully 
and  authoritatively  given  in  this  edition  of  the  General  Armory.  My  debt 
is  also  great,  and  my  acknowledgments  are  most  cordially  ofiered,  to  several 
members  of  the  Heralds'  College  England.     My  old  and  esteemed  friend 


ji  PREFACE. 

Sir  Albert  Woods,  Garter,  head  of  that  famous  Corporation,  has  responded 
with  unfailing  courtesy  and  consideration  to  every  question  I  have  put 
to  him;  and  Chester,  Lancaster,  and  York  Heralds,  Mr.  Murray  Lane, 
Mr.  Cokayne,  and  General  de  Havilland,  always  so  kind  and  obliging, 
have  supphed  most  important  information.  And  here  I  take  occasion 
to  express  the  gratitude  I  especially  feel  to  another  member  of  the  Heralds' 
College,  my  accomplished  friend  Stephen  Tucker,  Rouge  Croix.  His  skill 
and  great  heraldic  knowledge  have,  from  the  Glossary  to  the  very  end  of 
the  Armoiy,  amended  and  adorned  the  book.  There  is  scarcely  a  page  that 
does  not  afford  evidence  of  the  value  of  his  co-operation. 

Outside  of  the  Lyon  Office  and  the  Heralds'  College  numerous  con- 
tributors have  essentially  aided  me  in  the  compilation  of  this  volume. 

John  H.  Glascott,  J.P.,  of  Killowen,  co.  Wexford,  so  vrell  known  as  a 
Genealogist  and  Herald,  has,  with  indefatigable  zeal  and  assiduous  care* 
watched  the  progress  of  the  work  from  the  very  beginning.  I  have  also  to 
return  my  warmest  thanks  to  many  others  who  have  most  kindly  seconded 
my  endeavours,  and  particularly  to  Mr.  H.  Sydney  Grazebrook,  Barrister- 
at-law.  Captain  Alfred  E.  Lawson  Lowe,  of  Highfield,  Sfr  John  Maclean, 
F.S.A.,  Mr.  Robert  Riddle  Stodai-t,  of  the  Lyon  Office,  Mr.  Alfred  W. 
Morant,  F.S.A.,  Mr.  J.  Paul  Rylands,  of  Highfields,  F.S.A.,  Mr.  Tyssen- 
Amherst,  of  Didlington  Hall,  Mr.  Reginald  Stewart  Boddington,  Mr.  H.  A. 
Johnston,  of  the  Irish  Bar,  Rev.  E.  H.  Mainwaring  Sladen,  M.A.,  Mr.  George 
D.  Tomlinson,  Mr.  W.  Smith  ElHs,  of  Hydecroft,  Rev.  John  Woodward, 
George  W.  Marshall,  LL.D.,  F.S.A.,  Mr.  Charles  J.  O'Donel,  of  Dublin, 
Banister-at-law,  Mr.  James  Greenstreet,  Viscount  Gort,  Mr.  E.  P.  Shiiley,  of 
Ettington  Park,  and  Hon.  Robert  C.  Winthrop  and  Mr.  Thomas  C.  Amory, 
both  of  Boston,  U.S. 

Thus  produced  and  thus  largely  increased,  the  Armory  will,  it  is  earnestly 
hoped,  become  a  book  of  general  and  satisfactory  reference  on  the  subject 
of  Heraldry  and  Arms,  and  form  the  sequel  to  my  series  of  works  in  elucida- 
tion of  the  genealogy  and  history  of  the  titled  and  untitled  orders  of  the 
three  Kingdoms.

HERALDRY. 


Heraldry  may  be  defined  "  the  art  of  blazoning',  assigning,  and  marsTialling  coat 
armour,"  or  more  particularly  "  the  art  of  arranging  and  explaining  in  proper  terms 
all  that  relates  or  appertains  to  the  bearing  of  Arms,  Crests,  Badges,  Quarterings, 
and  other  hereditary  marks  of  honour."  The  marshalHng  of  processions,  tho 
conducting  of  public  solemnities,  the  declaring  of  peace  and  war,  come  also  within 
^<i  province  of  a  herald's  duties. 

The  origin  of  badges  and  emblems  may  certainly  be  traced  to  the  earliest  times, 
and  the  enthusiasm  of  some  of  the  primitive  writers  on  the  subject  has  led  them 
to  gravely  assert  that  even  Noah  and  Japhet  had  distinctive  armorial  bearings ! 
But  while  it  may  be  admitted  that  in  the  ancient  world  warlike  nations  bore  on  their 
shields  and  standards  distinguishing  devices,  it  is  not  clear  that  our  Heraldry  can 
in  strictness  be  traced  to  a  more  remote  period  than  the  twelfth  or,  at  furthest, 
the  eleventh  century.  Numerous  tombs  exist  of  persons  of  noble  blood,  who  died, 
before  the  year  1000,  yet  there  is  not  an  instance  known  of  one  with  a  heraldic 
bearing.  The  Pere  Menestrier  made  a  minute  and  extensive  search  through  France, 
Italy,  Germany,  and  Flanders,  and  the  most  ancient  Coat  of  Arms  he  was  able  to 
discover  was  that  upon  the  monumental  eflBgy  of  a  Count  of  Wasserburg,  in  the 
church  of  St.  Emeran,  at  Ratisbon  :  the  ensigns  were  "  Per  fess  ar.  and  sa.  a  lion 
rampant  counterchanged  ;  "  and  the  date  1010.  Yet  even  here  *'  there  is  good  reason 
to  believe,"  says  the  learned  Frenchman,  "  that  this  tomb  was  restored  some  time 
after  the  Count's  death  by  the  Monks  of  the  Abbey  he  had  endowed." 

Sir  John  Feme  is  of  opinion  that  the  science  was  borrowed  from  the  Egyptians. 
Sir  George  Mackenzie  ascribes  it  to  the  age  of  Charlemagne,  and  says  that  it  began 
and  grew  with  the  feudal  laws,  but  took  its  origin,  perhaps,  in  the  time  of  Jacob, 
who,  blessing  his  sons,  gave  them  marks  of  distinction,  which  the  twelve  tribes 
afterwards  bore  on  their  ensigns :  but  our  old  reliable  friend,  Guillim,  will  have  it 
that  Heraldry — as  a  science  in  England — cannot  go  back  to  an  earlier  epoch  than 
about  the  year  1200.  For  my  own  part,  I  consider  that  the  registry  of  its  birth  may 
be  found  among  the  archives  of  the  Holy  Wars,  that  its  cradle  was  rocked  by  the 
soldiers  of  the  Cross,  and  that  its  maturity  was  attained  in  the  chivalrous  age  of 
Feudalism. 

However,  at  the  trial  of  the  celebrated  controversy  between  Sir  Richard  Le  Scrope 
and  Sir  Robert  Grosvenor,  for  the  right  to  bear  the  arms  "  Az.  a  bend  or,"  held 
20th  August,  1385,  before  the  High  Constable  of  England  and  Sir  John  de  Multon, 
Deputy  to  the  Earl  Marshal,  and  adjourned  to  16th  May,  1386,  John  of  Gaunt,  Duko 
of  Lancaster,  deposed  that  the  said  arms  were  of  right  the  arms  of  Sir  Richard 
Le  Scrope,  and  his  ancestors  at  the  time  of  the  Conquest,  and  that  in  the  French 
wars,  under  Edward  III.,  one  Carminow  of  Cornwall,  challenged  Sir  Richard 
Le  Scrope's  right  to  the  same,  that  the  dispute  having  been  referred  to  six 
knights,  they  found  that  the  said  Carminow  was  descended  of  a  lineage  armed  "  Az. 
a  bend  or,"  since  the  time  of  King  Arthur,  and  that  the  said  Sir  Richard  Le  Scrope 
was  descended  of  a  right  line  of  ancestors  armed  with  the  same  arms  since  the 
time  of  King  William  the  Conqueror.  Owen  Glendower,  the  Welsh  Prince,  deposed 
at  the  trial  that  the  Grosveuors  bore  the  same  axaaa  fi-om  the  time  of  tha 
Conquest.

HERALDRY. 


The  word  Heraldry  is  derived  from  the  German  «§eer,  a  host,  an  army — and  «§cli), 
a  champion ;  and  the  term  hlason,  by  which  the  science  is  denoted  in  French,  English, 
Itahan,  and  German,  has  most  probably  its  origin  in  the  German  word  Skgen,  "  to 
blow  the  horn."  Whenever  a  new  knight  appeared  at  a  Tournament,  the  herald 
Bonnded  the  trumpet,  and  as  the  competitors  attended  with  closed  vizors,  it  was  his 
duty  to  explain  the  bearing  of  the  shield  or  coat-armour  belonging  to  each.  Thua, 
the  knowledge  of  the  various  devices  and  symbols  was  called  Heraldry,  and  as  the 
announcement  was  accompanied  with  sound  of  trumpet,  it  was  termed  "  blazoning  the 
arms."  The  Germans  transmitting  the  word  to  the  French,  it  reached  us  after  the 
Norman  Conquest. 

At  first,  armorial  bearings  were  probably  like  surnames,  assumed  by  each  warrior 
at  his  free  will  and  pleasure  ;  and,  as  his  object  would  be  to  distinguish  himself  and 
his  followers  from  others,  his  cognizance  would  be  respected  by  the  rest,  either  out  of 
an  innate  courtesy  or  a  feeling  of  natural  justice  disposing  men  to  recognize  the  right 
of  first  occupation,  or  really  from  a  positive  sense  of  the  inconvenience  of  being 
identified  or  confounded  with  those  to  whom  no  common  tie  united  them.  Where, 
however,  remoteness  of  stations  kept  soldiers  aloof,  and  extensive  boundaries,  and 
different  classes  of  enemies  from  without,  subdivided  the  force  of  a  kingdom  into 
many  distinct  bands  and  armies,  opportunities  of  comparing  and  ascertaining  what 
ensigns  had  been  already  appropriated  would  be  lost,  and  it  well  might  happen,  even 
in  the  same  country,  that  various  families  might  be  found  unconsciously  using  the 
same  arms. 

It  has  long  been  a  matter  of  doubt  when  the  bearing  of  coats  of  arms  first 
became  hereditary.  The  Norman  tiles  engraved  in  Mr.  Henniker's  letter  to  the 
Society  of  Antiquaries,  were  supposed  to  have  fixed  the  date  at  the  period  of  the 
Norman  Conquest,  but  Mr.  Montagu  very  ably  argues  that  it  is  not  at  all  clear  that 
these  tiles  were  of  the  same  antiquity  as  "  the  Abbaye  aux  Hommes  at  Caen,"  in 
which  they  were  found  ;  indeed  he  seems  to  prove  quite  the  contrary.  Certain  it  is 
that  it  was  not  until  the  Crusades  that  Heraldry  came  into  general  use.  In  the 
History  of  Battell  Abbey,  Richard  Lucy,  Chief  Justice  temp.  Henry  II.,  is  reported  to 
have  blamed  a  mean  subject  for  carrying  a  private  seal,  when  that  pertained,  as  he  said, 
to  the  King  and  Nobility  alone.  Under  Edward  I.,  seals  of  some  sort  were  so  general, 
that  the  Statute  of  Exon  ordained  the  coroner's  jury  to  certify  with  their  respective 
signets,  and  in  the  following  reign  they  became  very  common,  so  that  not  only  such 
as  bore  arms  used  to  seal,  but  others  fashioned  signets,  taking  the  letters  of  their  own 
names,  flowers,  knots,  birds,  beasts,  &c.  It  was  afterwards  enacted  by  statute,  that 
every  freeholder  should  have  his  proper  seal  of  arms  ;  and  he  was  either  to  appear  at 
the  head  court  of  the  shire,  or  send  his  attorney  with  the  said  seal,  and  those  who 
omitted  this  duty  were  amerced  or  fined. 

The  earliest  Heraldic  document  that  has  been  handed  down  to  us  is  a  Roll  op 
Arms,  made  between  the  years  1240  and  1245.  It  contains  the  names  and  arms  of 
the  Barons  and  Knights  of  the  reign  of  Henry  HI.,  and  affords  incontrovertible 
evidence  of  the  fact  that  Heraldry  was  at  that  time  reduced  to  a  science.  It  is 
curious,  too,  as  indicating  the  changes  that  have  taken  place  between  a  period 
approximating  so  nearly  to  its  origin  and  the  present ;  and  invaluable,  as  offering 
contemporary  testimony  of  the  exact  bearings  of  the  ancestors  of  some  of  our  most 
distinguished  families.  This  important  manuscript  as  well  as  three  other  similar 
collections,  "  The  Siege  of  Carlaverock,"  "  A  Roll  of  Arms,  temp.  Edward  II.,"  and 
"  A  Roll  of  Arms,  temp.  Edward  III.",  were  published  by  the  late  Sir  Harris  Nicolas, 
accompanied  by  prefatory  remarks  and  occasional  notes. 

"  The  Sikge  of  Carlaverock  "  is  a  poem  descriptive  of  the  Banners  of  the  Peers 
and  Knights  of  the  English  army  who  were  present  at  the  siege  of  Carlaverock 
Castio  in  Scotland,  in  February,  1301. 

The  Roll  of  Arms  of  the  time  of  Edward  II.,  made  between  the  years  1308  and 
1314,  is  divided  into  counties,  and  comprises  the  names  and  arms  of  about  eleven

hnndred  and  sixty  persons.      It  still  remains   in   the   Cottonian   Library,    British 
Museum  (Calig.  A.  xviii.). 

The  FoDETH  Roll,  temp.  Edward  III.,  appears  to  have  been  compiled  between 
the  years  1337  and  1350.      Its  plan  was  most  comprehensive,  embracing  the  arms  of 
aH  the  Peers  and  Knights  in  England,  arranged  in  the  following  order  : — 
I.  The  King,  the  Earls,  and  the  Barons. 
n.  The  Knights  under  their  respective  counties. 

III.  The  great  Personages  who  lived  in  earlier  times. 

Besides  these  Rolls,  other  collections  of  arms  have  been  published,  adding 
much  to  our  iuformation  on  the  subject.  In  these  ancient  rolls  Heraldry  first 
assumes  the  appearance  of  a  science,  and  it  would  seem  that  the  rules  by  which  it  is 
governed  then  existed. 

The  earliest  writer  on  the  subject,  whose  work  has  descended  to  us,  is  Nicholas 
Upton.  His  treatise  was  composed  in  the  reign  of  Henry  V.,  and  translated  in  that 
of  his  successor,  in  the  work  well  known  to  all  admirers  of  the  art  as  "  The  Boke  of 
St.  Albans."  With  the  decline  of  chivalry  the  study  of  Heraldry  was  neglected,  and 
the  exaggerated  dignity  to  which  Feme,  Mackenzie,  and  other  enthusiasts  endeavoured 
to  raise  it,  only  gained  for  it  contempt ;  but  a  taste  for  the  study  of  antiquities 
generally  has  gradually  revived ;  and  the  use  of  Heraldry  as  a  key  to  history  and 
biography  is  becoming  every  day  more  and  more  acknowledged,  not  only  in  England, 
but  throughout  Europe. 


RIGHT  TO  BEAR  ARMS. 

*'  Ensigns,''  says  a  learned  writer,  "  were,  in  their  first  acceptation,  taken  up  at 
any  gentleman's  pleasure,  yet  hath  that  liberty  for  many  ages  been  deny'd,  and  they, 
by  regal  authority,  made  the  rewards  of  merit  or  the  gracious  favours  of  princes." 

In  the  reign  of  Henry  V.  the  following  proclamation  issued,  prohibiting  the  use 
of  heraldic  ensigns  to  aU  who  could  not  show  an  original  and  valid  right,  except  those 
"  who  had  borne  arms  at  Agin  court :  "  "  Quod  nullus  cujuscunque  status,  gradus  sen 
conditionis  fnerit,  hujusmodi  arma  sive  tunicas  armorum  in  se  sumat,  nisi  ipse  jure 
antecessorio  vel  ex  donatione  alicujus  ad  hos  sufl3.cientem  potestatem  habentis,  ea 
possideat  aut  possidere  debeat,  et  quod  ipse  arma  sive  tunicas  illas  ex  cujus  dono 
obtinet,  demonstrationis  suae  personis  ad  hoc  per  nos  assignatis  manifeste  demonstret, 
exceptis  illis  qui  nobiscum  apud  helium  de  Agincourt  arma  portabant,  &c."  But, 
despite  the  royal  ordinance,  a  multiplicity  of  abuses  found  their  way  into  all  matters 
touching  descent  and  arms,  which  called  aloud  for  reformation,  and  gave  rise,  in  the 
early  part  of  the  sixteenth  century,  to  the  Heralds'  Visitations,  documents  of  high 
authority  and  value.  Royal  commissions  were  issued  under  the  Great  Seal  to  the  two 
Provincial  Kings  of  Arms,  Clarenceux  and  Norroy,  authorising  and  commanding  each, 
by  himself  or  his  deputy,  to  visit  the  whole  of  his  province  as  often  as  he  should  deem 
it  necessary,  to  summon  before  him  aU  those  who  bore  or  assumed  to  bear  arms  and 
were  styled  esquires,  to  cause  them  to  produce  authority  for  bearing  and  using  same, 
"  to  peruse  and  take  knowledge  of  aU  manner  of  coat  armour,  cognizances,  crests, 
and  other  like  devices,  with  the  notes  of  the  descents,  pedigrees,  and  marriages,  of  all 
the  nobility  and  gentry  therein  ;  and  also  to  reprove,  control  and  make  infamous  by 
proclamation,  all  such  as  unlawfully,  end  without  just  authority,  usurped  or  took  any 
name  or  title  of  honour  or  dignity."  In  these  documents  are  set  forth  the  principal 
hereditary  achievements  of  the  kingdom. 

All  persons  who  can  deduce  descent  from  an  ancestor  whose  armorial  ensigns  have 
been  acknowledged  in  any  one  of  the  Visitations,  are  entitled  to  carry  those  arms  by 
right  of  inheritance.  When,  however,  no  such  descent  can  be  shown,  the  party  must, 
if  it  be  possible,  prove  himself  to  be  descended  from  some  one  whose  right  has  been 
admitted ;  from  a  Grantee  ;  or,  in  fault  of  that  proof,  must  become  a  Grantee  himself. 


.^  HERALDRY. 

These  observations  apply  more  especially  to  the  usage  of  arms  in  England. 

In  Eno-land  and  "Wales,  Arms  are  granted,  nnder  the  authority  of  the  Eavl 
Marshal,  by  Grarter  and  one  of  the  Provincial  Kings,  according  to  his  jurisdic- 
tion. In  Scotland,  Lyon  King  of  Arms,  and  in  Ireland,  Ulster  King  of  Arms, 
have  the  sole  power  to  grant  or  confirm  Arms  in  their  respective  Kingdoms. 
In  consequence  of  the  disturbed  state  of  Ireland  towards  the  close  of  the  sixteenth 
and  nearly  all  through  the  seventeenth  century,  the  very  period  when  the  English 
Heralds  made  their  Visitations,  and  admitted  arms  to  all  who  proved  their  right,  it 
was  impossible  to  carry  out  Visitations  in  Ireland.  In  fact,  there  are  only  three  Irish 
Visitations  remaining  on  record,  viz.,  Dubhn  County,  1606 ;  DubHn  City,  1607  ; 
Wexford  County,  1618.  To  provide  for  this  want  of  Visitation,  Ulster  King  of 
Arms  has  authority  to  give  a  Confirmation  (with  some  slight  heraldic  difierence  to 
indicate  the  fact  of  its  being  a  Confirmation),  to  a  claimant  who  can  prove  to  his 
satisfaction  that  he,  the  claimant,  and  his  family  have  used  for  a  certain  number  of 
generations  the  said  arms  and  crest. 

BLAZON  OF  ARMS. 

Blazon,  or  Blason,  is  the  proper  technical  description  of  Armorial  Bearings, 
according  to  the  scientific  rules  of  Heraldry.  In  blazoning  a  coat  of  arms,  brevity 
is  to  be  studied,  and  tautology  avoided,  care  being  still  taken  to  give  a  minute 
description  of  every  bearing,  its  position,  place  on  the  shield,  tincture,  &c.  Though 
the  same  metal,  colour,  or  fur,  may  occur  more  than  once,  the  repetition  of  its  name 
should  be  scrupulously  guarded  against,  by  describing  the  charge,  which  happens 
to  be  of  a  tincture  already  mentioned,  as  of  the  first,  second,  or  third,  according  to 
the  relative  position  that  tincture  may  hold  in  the  blazon ;  for  example,  the  arms  of 
Preston  of  Furness  Abbey  are,  "Ar.  two  bars  gu.  on  a  canton  of  the  second  a 
cinquefoil  or."  In  this  blazon  the  colour  of  the  canton  is  described  of  the  second, 
to  obviate  the  repetition  of  the  word  "gu."  The  next  general  rule  to  be  observed 
is  to  begin  the  blazon  with  the  description  of  the  field,  its  tincture  or  tinctures, 
unless  it  is  divided  by  any  of  the  main  partitions  already  treated,  in  which  case  the 
descriptive  blazon  would  begin  as  perfess,per  pale,  per  saltire,  &c.  The  principal 
ordinary,  if  any,  should  next  be  described,  with  its  tincture,  &c. ;  and  then  the 
charges  around  it  generally,  giving  the  surcharges  upon  such  ordinary,  after  those 
between  which  it  is  borne ;  the  chief,  canton,  or  any  charge  placed  in  a  particular 
point  of  the  shield,  with  its  surcharges,  if  any,  being  generally  blazoned  last. 

If  a  coat  consists  of  two  tinctures  only,  it  is  blazoned,  as  in  the  arms  of  Lambton, 
*'  Sa.  a  fess  between  three  lambs  pass.  ar.  which  indicates  that  both  the  fess  and  lambs 
are  of  the  tincture  argent ;  when  the  last-mentioned  charge,  or  bearing,  is  of  the  same 
tincture  as  that  one  named  immediately  before  it,  and  yet  cannot  be  included  under 
ono  word,  it  is  necessary  to  describe  it  as  "  of  the  last :  "  thus,  in  the  arms  of 
DoEMER,  "  Az.  ten  billets,  four,  three,  two  and  one,  or,  on  a  chief  of  the  last  a  demi  lion 
ramp,  issuant  sa."     Of  the  last  is  used  to  prevent  a  repetition  of  "  or." 

If  there  be  two  sets  of  charges  of  equal  number  on  any  parts  of  the  shield,  or 
one  set  of  charges  on  an  ordinary  between  the  same  number  of  charges  on  the  shield, 
the  repetition  of  the  number  must  be  avoided,  by  describing  the  second  set  of  charges 
by  the  words  "  as  many."  Thus,  in  the  arms  of  Wilmot,  "  Ar.  on  a  fess  gu. 
between  three  eagles'  heads  erased  sa.  as  many  escallops  or :  tho  words  "  as  many  " 
prevent  the  repetition  of  the  number  "  three  "  in  this  example. 

When  charges  are  borne  without  the  interposition  of  the  ordinaries,  the  exact 
position  they  occupy  on  the  Bhic\d—fes sways,  or  in  fess,  if  in  line  across  the  field ; 
paleways,  or  in  pale,  if  perpendicular,  one  over  the  other ;  and  hendways,  or  in 
bend,  if  placed  diagonally  from  the  dexter  chief  to  the  sinister  base,  mast  bcdescribcd, 
as  well  OS  the  attitude  and  tinctures  of  such  charges,  e.g. 


HERALDRY.  ix 

"  Matjleverer  (Arncliffe,  co.  York).  Sa.  three  greyhounds  courant  in  pale  ar. 
collared  or :  "  in  pale  signifying  that  the  greyhounds  are  borne  perpendicularly  one 
above  the  other. 

When  charges  are  three,  whether  with  or  without  ordinaries,  the  usual  way 
they  are  borne  is  two  in  chief  and  one  in  base,  and  this  is  understood  without  being 
mentioned ;  but  if  they  be  not  so  placed,  or  exceed  the  number  three,  their  position 
must  be  specifically  described,  according  to  the  preceding  rule  ;  or  if  horizontal  rows, 
of  an  equal  or  unequal  number,  their  number,  &c.,  must  be  stated.  The  last  remark, 
the  arms  of  Brounckee  will  tend  to  elucidate,  viz. :  "  Ar.  six  pellets  in  pale,  three, 
two,  and  one,  a  chief  embattled  sa.,"  implying  that  the  six  pellets  are  borne  in  three 
rows,  three  in  the  uppermost,  two  in  the  second,  and  one  in  the  lowest. 


MARSHALLING  ARMS. 

Marshalling  arms  is  defined  by  Guillim  and  Mackenzie  to  be  "  the  conjoining  of 
two  or  more  coats  in  one  shield,"  or,  strictly  speaking,  the  proper  arrangement 
in  one  shield,  either  by  impaling  or  quartering,  of  two  or  more  ensigns, 

"  Impalikg  "  applies  to  the  method  of  using  the  wife's  arms,  and  is  usually  practised 
by  dividing  the  shield  into  two  equal  parts,  and  placing  the  husband's  arms  in  the 
dexter,  with  the  wife's  in  the  sinister.  When  there  happens  to  be  a  border  round 
one  or  both  of  them,  the  portion  of  the  border  where  the  two  coats  unite  is  omitted. 
There  are,  however,  two  rules  to  be  attended  to  : — 

No  husband  can  impale  his  wife's  arms  with  his  own  on  a  surcoat,  ensign,  or 
banner,  nor  can  a  Knight  of  the  Garter,  or  of  any  other  Order,  when  surrounding 
the  shield  with  the  motto  of  his  knighthood,  bear  his  wife's  coat  within  it ;  for,  saith 
Sandford,  although  the  husband  may  give  his  equal  half  of  her  escutcheon,  yet  he 
cannot  share  his  temporary  order  of  knighthood  with  her,  except  she  be  Sovereign 
of  the  Order.  This  restriction  is  not  allowed  by  Edmondson,  who  argues  that  there 
is  not  a  single  article  in  all  the  Statutes  of  the  Order,  that  debars  the  new-made 
knight  from  continuing  to  impale,  as  he  had  done  previously,  his  wife's  arms.  It  has 
always  struck  me  that  the  churlish  regulation  of  modern  heraldry,  which  precludes 
a  knight  from  bearing  his  wife's  arms  within  the  ribbon  or  collar  of  his  order,  is  an 
anomaly.  The  wife  of  a  knight  shares  the  precedence,  title,  and  dignity  of  her 
husband.  Why  then  should  she  be  debarred  participation  in  the  heraldic  bearings, 
and  the  beautiful  garter  that  encircles  them  ?  This  exclusion  is  not  of  ancient  date. 
The  old  Stall  Plates  of  the  Knights  aSbrd  proof  of  the  contrary,  and  gives  several 
instances  of  husband's  and  wife's  arms  impaled  within  the  Garter.  In  the  monu- 
ment at  Stanton  Harcourt  there  is  not  only  the  Garter  tied  round  Lady  Harcourt's 
left  arm,  but  at  the  head  of  the  tomb  appear  the  bearings  of  her  husband  impaling 
within  a  Garter  the  lady's  own  arms. 

If  a  man  marries  an  heiress  or  co-heiress,  instead  of  impaling  his  wife's  arms 
with  his  own  he  bears  them  on  an  escutcheon  of  pretence  in  the  centre  or  fess 
point  of  his  paternal  coat,  but  he  cannot  so  bear  them  during  the  lifetime  of  his 
wife's  father.  When  a  lady  who  is  an  heiress  dies  leaving  her  husband  surviving, 
his  right  to  bear  her  arms  on  an  escutcheon  of  pretence  ceases  ;  the  right  to  bear 
her  arms  descends  to  her  issue  to  be  borne  as  a  quartering.  A  man  cannot  bear  his 
wife's  arms  as  an  impalement  after  her  death :  he  must  bear  his  arms  as  before 
his  marriage,  otherwise  there  is  no  heraldic  mode  of  showing  that  his  wife  is  dead. 
The  case  differs,  however,  as  regards  a  widow :  whilst  she  remains  such,  she  is 
obliged  to  bear  the  arms  of  her  deceased  husband ;  and  I  am  inclined  to  think  that  a 
widower  should  continue  to  impale  or  otherwise  associate  his  late  wife's  arms  with 
his  own  if  there  was  issue  of  the  marriage.  A  husband  whose  wife  is  by  descent 
entitled  to  a  shield  of  quarteringa,  may  impale  all  the  qaartcrings  his  wife  is  entitled 
to  ;  bafc  this  is  not  usual. 


,  HERALDRY. 

If  a  commoner  marry  the  widow  of  a  peer  he  impales  only  the  arms  of  his  wife's 
father,  the  lady  on  a  subsequent  marriage  losing  all  right  to  any  armorial  bearings  of 
her  former  husband  or  husbands. 

Edward  III.  appears  to  have  been  the  first  that  quartered  arms  in  England, 
•when,  in  right  of  his  mother  Isabella,  daughter  and  heiress  of  Philip  IV.  of  France, 
he  assumed  the  arms,  Az.  semee-de-lis  or,  as  a  quartering  on  the  national  banner ; 
and  John  Hastings,  second  Earl  of  Pembroke,  was  the  first  subject  who  imitated  his 
royal  master's  example,  quartering,  Az.  six  lioncels  ramp,  ar.,  in  right  of  his  grand- 
mother, Julian,  daughter  of  Thomas  de  Leyburn,  and  heiress  of  William  de  Leyburne, 
summoned  to  Parliament  1299. 

The  intention  of  Quartering  is  to  show  the  descent  of  one  family  from  heiresses 
or  co-heiresses  of  other  houses,  and  to  exhibit  and  perpetuate  this  representation. 
Thus,  the  children  of  an  heiress  are  entitled,  at  her  death,  to  quarter  with  their 
paternal  coat  her  arms,  as  well  as  all  quarterings  which  she  may  have  inherited.  It 
must  be  borne  in  mind  that  an  heiress  or  co-heiress  in  Heraldry  is,  by  the  laws  of 
arms,  a  lady  who  is,  by  having  no  brother,  or  by  her  brother  or  brothers  having  died 
without  issue,  a  representative  in  blood  of  her  father,  and  that  thereby  she  transmits 
to  her  descendants  the  right  to  quarter  her  family  arms.  The  term  "  heiress  "  in 
Heraldry  does  not  apply  to  the  succession  to  property :  Andrew  Lynn,  Esq.,  of 
BalHnamona,  co.  Waterford,  disinherited  his  son,  and  bequeathed  his  estates  to  his 
daughter  Ann,  the  wife  of  Robert  Carew,  ancestor  of*  Lord  Carew  ;  her  descendants 
inherited  the  estates  so  bequeathed,  but  did  not  acquire  a  right  to  quarter  the 
arms  of  Lynn.  In  marshalling  quarterings,  the  first,  after  the  paternal  arms, 
is  the  shield  of  the  earliest  heiress,  which  the  bearer's  direct  ancestor  in  the 
male  line  has  married,  and  then  succeed  any  quarterings  her  descent  may  bring  in ; 
Tfith  the  second  heiress  the  same  rule  is  followed,  and  so  on,  in  chronological  rotation, 
to  the  end  of  the  chapter. 

When  a  daughter  becomes  heiress  or  co-heiress  to  her  mother  (also  an  heiress), 
and  not  to  her  father,  which  happens  when  the  father  marries  a  subsequent  wife, 
and  has  by  her  male  issue,  to  represent  him,  she  is  entitled  to  bear  the  maternal  coat 
with  the  arms  of  her  father  on  a  canton,  taking  all  the  quarterings  to  which  her 
mother  was,  by  descent,  entitled.  When  married,  she  conveys  the  whole  to  be 
borne  on  an  escutcheon  of  pretence,  and  transmits  them  at  her  death  to  be  borne  as 
quarterings  by  her  descendants,  the  paternal  canton  on  the  first  shield  still  indicating 
the  nature  of  the  representation. 

If  an  heiress  E.B.,  marry  first  F.G.,  and  have  a  son  R.G.,  and  marry  secondly 
H.I.,  and  have  by  her  second  husband  an  only  child,  a  daughter,  S.I.,  the  son  of 
this  lady  S.I.,  viz.,  T.N.,  would  quarter  the  arms  of  that  second  husband  as  well 
&3  the  arms  of  his  grandmother  E.B.  This  point  has  been  thus  settled  by  the 
Heralds'  College  in  London,  but  the  question  requires  farther  consideration  and 
adjudication  before  it  can  be  finally  admitted.

being,  if  I  may  so  expi-ess  it,  married  to  the  church,  the  arms  of  the  See  on  the 
dexter  side,  and  his  family  arms  on  the  sinister,  but  if  he  be  married,  he  does  not 
carry  his  wife's  arms  on  his  shield.  On  his  hatchment  he  uses  two  shields,  the  first  on 
the  dexter  side,  viz.,  the  arms  of  his  See  impaled  with  his  own  arms,  surmounted  with 
a  mitre,  the  second  on  the  dexter,  his  own  arms  impaled  with  his  wife's,  in  the  same 
way  as  knights  of  the  different  Orders. 

If  a  man  marry  a  widow,  he  impales  her  maiden  arms.  A  widower  entering  on 
a  second  marriage,  marshals  with  his  own  the  arms  only  of  his  second  wife.  He  is 
not,  according  to  the  laws  of  arms,  entitled  to  continue  the  usa^e  of  his  deceased 
wife's  ensigns. 


THE  SHIELD  OF  ARMS. 

According  to  the  received  authorities,  there  are  ten  classes  of  arms  : — 

1.  Arms  of  Dominion,  those  borne  by  Sovereigns  and  annexed  to  the  territories 
they  govern. 

2.  Arms  of  Pretension,  used  by  Sovereigns  who  are  not  in  possession  of  the 
dominions  to  which  such  arms  belong,  but  who  claim,  or  pretend  a  right  to  them. 
Thus  the  Kings  of  England  from  Edward  III.  to  George  III.  quartered  the  arms  of 
France. 

3.  Arms  op  Community,  those  of  bishoprics,  universities,  cities,  and  other 
corporate  bodies. 

4.  Arms  op  Assumption,  adopted  without  the  grant  of  the  Sovereign  or  of  a 
King-of-Arms,  and  used  as  a  proper  right.  For  instance,  if  a  prince  or  nobleman  be 
taken  prisoner  in  lawful  war,  the  victor  may  bear  the  arms  of  the  person  so  taken, 
and  transmit  them  to  his  heirs. 

5.  Arms  of  Alliance  :  these  are  adopted  by  families  or  private  persons,  and 
are  joined  with  their  ovra  heraldic  bearings  to  denote  the  alliance  which  they  have 
contracted  by  marriage.  Arms  of  this  description  are  impaled,  or  are  borne  in  an 
escutcheon  of  pretence  by  those  who  have  married  heiresses.  But  the  latter  arrange- 
ment (that  of  the  separate  escutcheon)  is  not  allowed  until  the  death  of  the  father  of 
the  lady. 

6.  Arms  of  Adoption  are  borne  by  a  stranger  in  blood,  and  are  specially  granted 
by  the  Sovereign  to  empower  the  person  applying  for  them  to  obtain  certain  moneys 
or  estates  bequeathed  on  the  condition  of  his  assuming  the  name  and  arms  of  the 
testator. 

7.  Arms  op  Concession  or  Honourable  Augmentation  are  peculiar  marks  of 
honour  granted  by  the  Sovereign  for  some  act  deserving  of  royal  approbation. 

8.  Arms  Paternal  and  Hereditary  are  those  transmitted  from  the  first 
possessor  to  his  heirs  ;  the  son  being  a  gentleman  of  second  coat  armour ;  the  grand- 
son a  gentleman  of  blood  ;  and  the  great-grandson  a  gentleman  of  ancestry. 

The  Shield  admits  of  various  forms,  and  is  divided  into  nine  integral  parts  to- 
mark  the  position  of  the  several  charges,  but  I  shall  only  here  allude  to  the  relative 
positions  of  the  principal  parts. 

First,  it  is  to  be  observed,  that  the  side  of  the  escutcheon  opposite  the  left  hand 
of  the  person  looking  at  it,  is  the  dexter,  or  right  side,  and  that  opposite  to  the  right 
hand,  the  sinister,  or  left.  The  centre  of  the  shield  is  called  the  fess  point ;  the  top  of 
the  dexter  side,  the  dexter  chief ;  the  top  of  the  sinister  side,  the  sinister  chief. 
The  hottom  of  the  shield  is  called  the  hose,  and  its  respective  sides  are  called  the 
dexter  and  sinister  base. 

The  Colours  common  to  shields  and  their  bearings  are  called  tinctures,  and  are 
of  seven  different  kinds ;  two  metaLs  and  five  colours,  viz.,  or,  gold ;  argent,  silver  j 
azuTGy  blue ;  gules,  red ;  vert,  green ;  purpure,  purple ;  and  scMe,  black.     Some  writers 


^  HERALDRY. 

on  the  science  admit  two  additional,  tawney,  or  tenec,  orange ;  and  sanguine,  blood 
colour ;  but  they  are  rarely  to  be  met  with  in  British  Arms. 

When  natural  objects  are  introduced  into  Heraldry,  they  are  often  represented  in 
their  ordinary  colours,  and  this  is  expressed  by  the  term  proper. 

A  shield  is  said  to  be  quartered  when  it  is  divided  into  four  equal  parts  by 
horizontal  and  perpendicular  lines  crossing  the  centre  ;  that  at  the  top  of  the  dexter 
side  is  called  the  first  quarter ;  the  top  of  the  sinister  side  is  called  the  second  quarter  ; 
the  tTiird  quarter  is  at  the  bottom  of  the  dexter  side,  and  the  bottom  of  the  sinister 
side  is  the  fourth  quarter.  When  the  shield  is  divided  into  two  equal  parts  by  a 
perpendicular  line,  it  is  called  impaling  :  the  dexter  being  the  man's  side,  the  sinister 
the  woman's.  Dividing  the  shield  into  two  equal  parts  by  a  horizontal  line  is  called 
per  f ess. 

Charges  arc  the  various  figures  depicted  on  shields,  by  which  the  bearers  are 
distinguished  from  one  another. 

All  charges  of  Arms  are  either  proper  or  common ;  those  charges  are  said  to  be 
proper  which  by  a  certain  property  do  particularly  belong  to  the  Art  of  Heraldry,  and 
are  of  ordinary  use  therein  :  hence  they  are  styled  "  Ordinaeies  :"  the  common  charges 
are  the  representations  of  all  the  emblems  which  retain  their  own  names  in  the  blazon. 
The  principal  Ordinaries  are — the  Chief,  the  Pale,  the  Bend,  the  Fess,  the  Cross, 
the  Saltire,  and  the  Chevron.  The  Sub-Ordinaries  are — the  Border,  the  Orle,  the 
Inescdtcheon,  the  Quarter,  the  Canton,  the  Paile  or  Pall,  the  Gyeon,  the  Pile,  the 
Flaunch,  &c. 

Differences,  or  Marks  of  Cadency,  are  the  distinctions  used  to  indicate  the 
various  branches  or  cadets  of  one  family.  The  eldest  son  (during  the  lifetime  of  his 
father)  bears  a  Label  ;  the  second,  a  Crescent  ;  the  third,  a  Mullet  ;  the  fourth, 
a  Martlet  ;  the  fifth,  an  Annulet  ;  the  sixth,  a  Fleur-de-lis  ;  the  seventh,  a 
Rose  ;  the  eighth,  a  Cross-Moline  ;  the  ninth,  a  double  Quatrefoil. 

The  mode  of  using  these  marks  of  cadency,  as  practised  by  the  Heralds'  College, 
London,  and  Ulster's  Office,  Dublin,  is  to  carry  them  down  to  the  third  generation. 
There  is  no  rule  as  to  the  colours  of  cadency  marks  except  one,  the  label  of  three 
points  must  not  be  argent  except  for  the  Royal  Family  ;  but  the  same  heraldic  rule 
applies  to  these  marks  as  to  ordinary  heraldic  charges,  colour  cannot  lie  on  colour,  or 
metal  on  metal. 

If  a  younger  son,  say  a  third  son,  who  bears  a  mullet  for  difference,  assume  by 
Royal  Licence  an  additional  surname,  in  addition  to  and  after  his  own  surname,  and 
the  arms  belonging  to  that  assumed  surname,  which  would  consequently  be  borne  in 
the  first  quarter  of  his  escutcheon,  it  is  not  necessary  for  him  to  continue  the 
mark  of  cadency,  as  the  compound  coat  is  sufficient  to  distinguish  him  from  the 
head  of  the  family  -,  if,  however,  he  wish  to  use  the  mark  of  cadency,  it  should  bo 
borne  in  the  fess  point  of  the  compound  coat. 


ATTITUDES  OR  POSITIONS  OF  ANIMALS,  BIRDS,  AND  FISHES. 

When  a  lion  or  other  beast  of  prey  stands  upright,  with  only  one  ear  and  one 
eye  seen,  with  the  head  in  profile,  he  is  termed  rampant;  when  walking  forward, 
with  one  eye  and  ear  seen,  passant ;  when  sitting,  sejant ;  when  lying  down,  couchant. 
If  in  any  one  of  these  positions  the  animal  look  full  face,  so  that  both  eyes  and 
cars  may  be  seen,  the  word  guardant  is  annexed  to  passant,  rampant,  sejant,  or 
couchant,  a.s  the  case  may  be ;  and  if  he  look  back,  the  word  reguardant.  An 
animal  is  salient  when  leaping  forwards  bendways  and  having  both  the  hind  legs  in 
the  same  position. 

To  griffins  the  term  segreant  is  given,  in  place  of  rampant.  Animals  of  the  deer 
kind  have  their  positions  otherwise  blazoned.     Thus,  when  looking  full-faced,  they 


HERALDRY.  xiii 

are  said  to  be  at  gaze;  vfhen  standing,  statant ;  when  walking,  tripping;  when 
leaping  forward,  springing ;  when  rnnning,  courant ;  and  when  at  rest  on  the  ground, 
lodged. 

A  horse  when  running  is  blazoned  courant,  or  in  full  speed;  when  leaping, 
salient,  cahre,  or  effray ;  when  rearing,  forcene,  but  these  three  last  terms  are  very 
seldom  met  with. 

Birds  are  blazoned,  when  standing  with  their  wings  down,  close;  when  preparing 
to  fly,  rising;  when  flying,  volant;  when  spread  open,  with  both  wings  stretched 
out,  and  their  breasts  seen,  displayed.  The  wings  open  and  against  each  other  are 
called  indorsed.  Two  wings  conjoined  and  expanded  are  calle  a  vol.  One  wing  is  a 
demivol. 

Fishes,  when  placed  horizontally,  are  naiant ;  when  perpendicularly,  hauriant ; 
when  drawn  in  an  arched  form  like  a  dolphin,  they  are  embowed. 

Any  heraldic  figure  placed  on  or  apparently  emanating  from  an  ordinary  or 
other  charge  is  called  issuant.  The  term  jessant  is  applied  either  to  a  general  issuing 
of  one  charge  from  another,  as  "a  chevron  jessant-de-lis,"  or  to  the  common 
device  of  a  leopard's  or  lion's  head  "jessant-de-lis."  A  fish  or  amphibious  creature 
is  described  as  naissant  from  an  ordinary  when  any  portion  of  the  body  with  the  tail 
is  seen.     A  serpeat  placed  horizontally  is  said  to  be  gliding. 


CRESTS,  TORCES  OS  WREATHS,  AND  BADGES. 

The  Crest  yields  in  honour  to  none  of  the  heraldic  insignia.  It  was  the  emblem 
that  served,  when  the  banner  was  rent  asunder,  and  the  shield  broken,  as  a  rallying 
point  for  the  knight's  followers,  and  a  distinguishing  mark  of  his  own  prowess.  The 
Crest,  named  by  the  French  Cimier,  from  Cime,  the  top  or  apex,  and  by  the  Italians 
Gimiero,  originated  in  the  necessity  of  distinguishing  one  chief  from  another,  and 
making  him  known  in  the  battle-field  and  the  tournament ;  consequently,  no  crest  is 
ever  allowed  to  a  female.  As  early  as  the  yesir  1101,  a  seal  of  Philip,  Count  of 
Flanders,  represents  him  with  his  crest ;  but  at  that  period,  and  for  a  century  and  a 
half  after,  few  of  lesser  degree  than  sovereigns  and  commanders  in  the  wars  ventured 
to  carry  this  mark  of  distinction.  The  first  example  of  a  crest  upon  the  helmet 
among  English  sovereigns  occurs  in  the  second  great  seal  of  Richard  Coeur  de  Lion. 
The  helmet  has  several  vertical  openings  in  front,  and  upon  the  top  is  placed  a 
golden  lion  guardant.  The  seal,  too,  of  Roger  de  Quincy,  Earl  of  Winchester,  one  of 
the  holy  warriors  of  the  reign  of  Henry  III.,  exhibits  on  a  cylindrical  casque  a 
dragon  as  a  device.  After  the  institution,  however,  of  the  Garter,  the  knights  o£ 
that  illustrious  order  adopted  crests,  and  the  practice  soon  became  so  general, 
that  these  emblems  were  assumed  indiscriminately,  by  all  those  who  considered 
themselves  legally  entitled  to  a  coat  armour.* 

At  their  first  adoption,  crests  were  usually  assumed  from  some  charge  in  the 
shield ;  and  thus,  in  very  many  ancient  houses,  we  find  the  crest  a  mere  emanation  of 
the  arms.  Little  information  remains  to  us  of  the  crests  borne  by  the  early  nobility ; 
aud  the  little  we  do  possess  we  owe  to  monumental  effigies  and  illuminated  manu- 
scripts. Froissart,  in  particular,  affords  many  curious  examples.  Nisbet  and  some 
other  writers  contend  that  these  heraldic  ornaments  might  be  changed  according  to 
the  good  pleasure  of  the  bearer,  but  this  has  long  been  forbidden  by  the  Kings  of 
Arms.     If  crests  be  the  distinguishing  tokens  by  which  families  may  be  known  (and 

•  The  monument  of  Sir  Oliver  de  Ingham,  in  Ingham  church,  Norfolk,  who  lived  temp.  Edward 
m.,  "affords,"  says  Meyrick,  "one  of  the  earliest  specimens  of  the  jousting  helmet  of  his  times,  sur- 
mounted by  its  crest ;  and  the  sepulchral  effigy  of  Sir  John  Harsick  is  a  remarkable  example  of 
English  armour  towards  the  close  of  the  reign  of  the  second  Richard.  The  knight  is  represented 
with  his  helmet  on,  over  his  coat  of  chained  mail,  so  as  to  display  the  mode  of  wearing  the  crest  and 
the  muntle." 


:riv  HERALDRY. 

this  seems  mcsf;  assuredly  to  be  the  intention  of  the  device),  one  might  as  well  alter 
a  coat  of  arms  as  an  hereditary  crest.  Still,  however,  circumstances  may  arise  in 
•which  a  change  becomes  desirable ;  but  this  should  never  be  made  on  slight  or 
•unimportant  grounds.  In  early  times,  Thomas  Mowbray,  Duke  of  Norfolk,  Earl 
Marshal  of  England,  was,  by  the  special  concession  of  Richard  II.,  allowed  to  carry 
the  crest  of  England — "  the  lion  passant  guardant  or ; "  and  John  Howard,  in  a 
subsequent  reign,  having  married  the  daughter  and  heiress  of  Mowbray,  substituted 
for  the  old  crest  of  Howard,  viz.,  "  two  wings,  each  charged  with  the  family  arms," 
the  new  but  honourable  cognizance  of  the  golden  lion. 

No  one  is  entitled  to  more  than  one  crest  unless  he  bears  two  surnames,  or  has 
received  the  additional  device  by  a  specific  grant.  The  Germans,  indeed,  have  long 
been  accustomed  to  display  in  a  row  over  their  shields  of  arms  the  crests  of  all  the 
houses  whose  ensigns  they  quarter ;  but  their  heraldry  is  peculiar,  differing  from  that 
of  the  other  countries  of  Europe.  In  truth,  the  impropriety  of  the  practice  of 
carrying  more  than  one  crest  is  remarkably  striking,  if  we  consider  for  a  moment  the 
purpose  for  which  these  cog^nizances  were  first  designed. 

Originally  crests  were  carved  in  light  wood,  or  made  of  boiled  leather  passed 
into  a  mould,  in  the  form  of  some  animal  real  or  fictitious,  and  were  fastened  to  the 
helmet  by  the  torce  or  wreath,  which  was  formed  of  two  pieces  of  silk,  "  twisted 
together  by  the  lady  who  chose  the  bearer  for  her  knight."  The  tinctures  of  the 
•wreath  are  always  those  of  the  principal  metal  and  colour  of  the  arms  ;  and  it  is  a  rule  iu 
delineating  the  -wreath  (shown  edgewise  above  the  shield)  that  the  first  coil  shall  be 
of  the  metal,  and  the  last  of  the  colour  of  which  the  achievement  is  constituted. 
Such  are  the  wreaths  in  general  use.  In  depicting  arms  the  wreath  consists  of  six 
twists  ;  when  the  crest  is  placed  on  a  cap  of  maintenance,  or  on,  or  issuing  out  of  a 
ducal  or  other  crown,  the  wreath  is  not  borne.  The  colours  and  metals  of  Liveries  are 
governed  by  the  tinctures  of  the  wreath,  or  in  its  absence  by  the  principal  metal  and 
colour  of  the  arms ;  thus,  if  the  principal  metal  of  the  arms  be  argent,  the  buttons 
and  lace  of  the  livery  is  silver ;  if  or,  they  are  gilt.  The  cloth  is  blue,  red,  black,  or 
green,  according  to  the  prevailing  colour  in  the  arms  ;  if  the  colour  be  red,  the  colour 
of  the  livery  may  be  modified  to  claret  colour ;  if  the  field  of  the  arms  be  a  metal, 
and  the  charge  an  animal  of  its  proper  colour,  and  no  other  colour  depicted  in  the 
arms,  the  colour  of  the  livery  should  follow  as  near  as  possible  the  proper  colour  of 
the  charge.     The  most  usual  colour  used  in  such  cases  is  brown. 

Crests  have  sometimes,  but  very  improperly,  been  confounded  with  "  badges," 
altogether  distinct  de-vices,  intended  to  distinguish  the  retainers  of  certain  great 
noblemen,  and  wrought  or  sewn  upon  the  liveries  with  which  they  were  supplied  by 
their  lord.  The  badge  appeared  also  emblazoned  on  the  chief's  standard  or  pennon,  and 
was  much  esteemed  until  the  reign  of  Queen  Elizabeth,  when  the  last  brilliant  relics  of 
the  feudal  system — the  joust,  the  tournament,  and  all  their  accompanying  parapher- 
nalia— fell  into  disuse.  Henry  II.  bore  an  escarbuncle  or ;  and  also  introduced  the 
famous  badge  borne  so  constantly  by  his  successors,  of  the  broom  sprig  or  Planta 
Gcnistffi  ("  II  portait  ung  Gennett  entre  deux  Plantes  de  Geneste  ")  ;  and  his  son, 
Richard  I.,  on  assuming  the  title  of  King  of  Jerusalem,  hoisted  the  banner  of  the 
Holy  City — the  dormant  lion  of  Judah — the  badge  of  David  and  Solomon.  Edward  I. 
had  a  rose,  stalk  green  and  petals  gold.  Edward  II.  commemorated  his  Castilian 
descent  by  the  badge  of  a  gold  tower.  Edward  III.  bore  "  silver  clouds  with  rays 
descending."  Richard  H.  adopted  the  white  hart,t  the  device  of  his  mother,  the 
Fair  Maid  of  Kent,  and  used  besides  a  Wliite  Falcon;  and  his  successor,  Henry  IV., 

t  "  Among  the  few  friends  who  attended  Richard  H.  after  his  capture  by  the  Earl  of  Northum- 
berland, was  Jenico  d'Artois,  a  Qascoigno,  that  etill  wore  the  cognizance  or  device  of  his  master,  King 
Bichard,  that  is  to  say,  a  white  hart,  and  would  put  it  away  from  him  neither  by  persuasion  nor 
throats ;  by  reason  whereof,  when  the  Duke  of  Lancaster  understood  it,  ho  caused  him  to  be 
committed  to  prison,  within  the  Castle  of  Chester.  This  man  was  the  last  (as  saith  mine  author)  which 
wore  that  device,  which  showed  well  thereby  his  constant  heart  towards  his  master." —  Holmshed.

introduced  the  red  rose  of  Lancaster,  which  became  ever  after  the  badge  of  tho 
Lancastrians,  as  opposed  to  the  white  rose  of  Tork.  He  also  had  for  cognizance  tho 
antelope,  as  well  as  the  silver  swan  of  the  De  Bohnns.  When  he  entered  the 
lists  against  Mowbray,  Duke  of  Norfolk,  his  caparisons  were  embroidered  with 
the  antelope  and  swan.  Henry  of  Agincourt  carried  a  beacon  and  fleur-de-lis 
crowned.  "  The  white  rose,  en  soleil,"  denotes  the  fourth  Edward,  and  "  the  white 
boar,"  the  third  Richard.  Henry  VI.  had  for  badge  a  Panther,  and  also  two  ostrich 
feathers  in  saltire,  one  silver,  the  other  gold.  His  Queen,  Margaret  of  Anion, 
adopted  a  "  daisy,"  in  allusion  to  her  name : 

"  The  daise  a  floure  white  and  rede, 
In  French  called  la  belle  Margarete." 

Henry  VII.  carried  "  the  red  dragon  "  of  Wales,  and  also  the  porfccnllis  as  well  as  the 
red  and  white  roses  combined,  emblematic  of  the  union  of  the  rival  houses.  "  In  the 
marriage  procession  of  Henry  Tudor  and  Elizabeth  of  York,"  says  an  agreeable  writer, 
*'  each  partizan  of  Lancaster  gave  his  hand  to  a  lady  of  the  York  party,  holding  a 
bouquet  of  two  roses,  red  and  white  entwined ;  and  at  the  birth  of  Prince  Henry, 
the  armorists  composed  a  rose  of  two  colours  (the  leaves  alternating  red  and  white), 
as  an  emblematical  offspring  of  the  marriage.  Horticulturists,  too,  forced  nature 
into  an  act  of  loyalty,  and  produced  a  psirty-coloured  flower  known  to  the  present  day 
as  the  rose  of  York  and  Lancaster." 

The  same  cognizances  were  used  by  Henry  VIII,  and  Edward  VI.,  the  former 
of  whom  displayed  sometimes  a  greyhound  courant  and  collared ;  and  at  others,  after 
the  seige  of  Boulogne,  a  white  swan,  the  arms  of  that  city.  Queen  Mary,  before 
Ler  accession,  adopted  the  red  and  white  roses,  but  added  a  pomegranate,  to  show 
her  descent  from  Spain ;  but,  on  assuming  the  sceptre,  she  took  "  Winged  Time 
drawing  Truth  out  of  a  pit,"  with  "Veritas  temporis  filia"  for  motto.  The  badges 
of  Queen  Elizabeth  were  the  red  and  white  roses,  the  fleur-de-lis,  and  the  Irish  harp, 
all  ensigned  by  the  royal  crown,  to  which  James  I.  added  the  Scottish  thistle.  Many 
of  the  greater  nobility  followed  the  royal  example ;  Beauchamp  had  "  the  bear  and 
ragged  stafE ;  "  FitzAlan,  "  the  white  horse  of  Arundel ; "  Vere,  "  the  blue  boar ;  " 
Percy,  "  the  crescent  and  manacle ; "   Stafford  and  Bourchier,  *'  the  knot," 

THE  MOTTO. 

The  Motto  is,  according  to  Guillim,  "a  word,  saying,  or  sentence  which  gentle- 
men carry  in  a  scroll  under  the  arms,  and  sometimes  over  the  crest."  It  had  its 
origin,  most  probably,  in  the  "  cri  de  guerre,"  or  the  watchword  of  the  camp,  and  its 
use  can  be  traced  to  a  remote  period.  Camden  assigns  the  reign  of  Henry  III.  as  the 
date  of  the  oldest  motto  he  ever  met  with,  that  of  William  de  Ferrers,  Earl  of  Derby, 
who  encircled  his  shield  with  the  legend,  "  Lege,  lege ; "  and  the  same  antiquary 
mentions  the  old  seal  of  Sir  Thomas  Cavall,  who  bore  for  his  arms  a  horse,  and  for 
Lis  motto,  "  Thom8B  credite,  cum  cernitis  ejus  equum."  Other  authorities,  however, 
refer  to  several  cases,  that  of  Trafibrd  of  Trafford  in  particular,  and  carry  up  the 
mottoes  to  a  much  earlier  epoch.  Be  this  as  it  may,  their  general  usage  may  be 
accurately  dated,  if  not  from  an  earlier  period,  certainly  from  the  institution  of  the 
0»der  of  the  Garter ;  and  after  that  celebrated  event  they  became  very  general,  and 
daily  gained  in  public  favour.  During  the  wars  of  Henry  V.,  Henry  VI.,  and 
Henry  VIII.,  innumerable  mottoes  graced  the  shields  of  the  waniors  of  the  time, 
and  in  the  courtly  days  of  Queen  EUzabeth  devices  were  especially  fashionable. 

Mottoes  may  be  taken,  changed,  or  relinquished,  when  and  as  often  as  the  bearer 
thinks  fit,  and  may  be  exactly  the  same  as  those  of  other  persons.  Still,  however^ 
the  pride  of  ancestry  will  induce  most  men  to  retain,  unaltered,  the  time-honoured 
sentiment  which,  adopted  in  the  first  instance  as  the  memorial  of  some  noble  action, 
some  memorable  war-cry,  or  a  record  of  some  ancient  family  descent,  has  been  handed 
down  from  sire  to  son  through  a  long  series  of  generations.

HERALDRT. 


"  Montjoye  Sfc.  Denis  "  was  the  cri  de  guerre  of  the  French  kings,  "  St.  Andrew  '* 
of  the  Scottish  monarchs,  and  "St.  George  for  merry  England,"  of  the  English. 
"  Dieu  ayde  au  premier  Chretien  "  rallied  the  Montmorencys  ;  and  "  A  Douglas  !  a 
Dono-las !  "  was  not  infrequently  heard  on  the  English  borders,  in  answer  to  the 
Percy  "  Esperance." 

The  same  conceit,  as  in  Heraldic  Bearings,  of  accommodating  the  motto  to  the 
name,  has  prevailed  occasionally  either  in  Norman-French  or  Latin :  thus  we  have 
"  Mon  Dieu  est  ma  roche,"  for  Roche,  Lord  Fermoy ;  "Let  Curzon  holde  what  Curzon 
helde,"  for  Curzon;  "  Strike  Dakyns,  the  devil's  in  the  hempe,"  for  Dakyns ;  "  Cavendo 
tutus,"  for  Cavendish  ;  "  Forte  scutum  salus  ducum,"  for  Fortesnue  ;  "  Set  on,"  for 
Seton,  Earl  of  Winton;  "Ne  vile  velis,"  for  Neville  ;  "  Vero  nihil  verius,"  for  Vere;  aud 
♦'  Ver  non  semper  viret,"  for  Vernon. 

How  admirably  suited  is  "  Pro  magna  charta  "  to  the  Premier  Barony,  Le  Des- 
pencer ;  and  how  plaintive  is  the  expressive  motto  adopted  by  the  oace  regal 
Courtenays  of  Powderham,  after  the  loss  of  the  Earldom  of  Devon,  "  Ubi  lapsus  f 
quid  feci?"  The  "  Fuimus  "  of  the  Earl  of  Elgin  tells  that  the  Bruces  were  once 
Kings ;  and  the  "  Crom  a  boo  "  of  the  Geraldines  recalls  the  time  when  an  Act  of 
Parliament  made  it  treason  to  repeat  that  famous  war-cry. 

Mottoes  are  also  frequently  allusive  to  the  arms  and  crests,  and  very  often 
commemorative  of  some  deed  of  chivalry.  With  reference  to  "  the  Hedgehog,"  the  crest 
of  the  Kyrles  of  Herefordshire,  the  family  of  "  the  Man  of  Ross,"  is  the  inscription 
"  Nil  moror  ictus  "  (I  do  not  care  for  blows)  ;  the  Gores,  whose  ensigns  comprise  the 
cross  crosslet,  have  "  In  hoc  signo  vinces."  "  Caen,  Cressie,  Calais,"  the  motto  of 
the  Radclyffes,  commemorates  the  services  of  Sir  John  Radclyffe,  Knt.,  of  Ordsali, 
at  the  seiges  of  Caen  and  Calais,  and  at  the  battle  of  Cressy ;  and  "  Boulogne  et  Cadiz," 
borne  by  the  Heygate  family,  records  the  presence  of  their  ancestor  at  those  famous 
seiges. 

"  Grip  Fast,"  the  device  of  the  Leslies,  has  remained  unchanged  since  the  time 
of  Margaret,  Qaeen  of  Scotland,  by  whom  it  was  given  to  Bartholomew  Leslie,  the 
founder  of  the  family,  under  the  following  circumstances  : — In  crossing  a  river, 
swollen  by  floods,  the  Queen  was  thrown  from  her  horse,  and  in  danger  of  being 
drowned,  when  the  knight,  plunging  into  the  stream,  seized  hold  of  the  royal  girdle, 
and  as  he  brought  her  with  difficulty  towards  the  bank,  she  frequently  exclaimed, 
*'  Grip  fast,"  words  which  she  desired  her  preserver  to  retain  for  his  motto,  in 
remembrance  of  this  circumstance. 

The  traditionary  origin  of  "Lamh  dearg  Erin  "  (the  Red  Hand  of  Ireland),  the 
motto  of  the  O'Neills,  is  this  : — In  an  ancient  expedition  of  some  adventurers  to 
Ireland,  their  leader  declared  that  whoever  first  touched  the  shore  should  possess  the 
territory  which  he  reached.  The  ancestor  of  the  O'Neills,  Princes  of  Ulster,  bent 
upon  obtaining  the  reward,  and  seeing  another  boat  likely  to  land,  cut  his  hand  o£E 
and  threw  it  upon  the  coast. 

Many  mottoes  are  allusive  either  to  a  portion  of  the  heraldic  bearings,  or  to  the- 
family  surname.  "  Leoni  non  sagittis  fido,"  I  trust  to  the  lion  not  to  the  arrows,  is  that 
of  the  Egertons,  whose  shield  exhibits  a  lion  between  three  pheons  ;  and  the  Martins 
use  these  singular  words ;  "  He  who  looks  at  Martin's  ape,  Martin's  ape  shall  look  at 
him  !  "  having  reference  to  their  crest,  of  "  an  ape  observing  himself  in  a  looking- 
glass."  The  AiTONs  of  Kippo,  a  branch  of  Aiton,  of  that  Ilk,  adopted  for  mottOr 
"  Et  decerptoo  dabunt  odorem,"  an  elegant  allusion  to  their  crest  of  "a  rose  bough 
ppr,"  and  of  their  being  an  offshoot  of  the  parent  stem. 

The  generality  of  mottoes,  however,  are  expressive  of  sentiments  of  piety,  hope, 
or  determination. 

Many  of  the  most  ancient  houses  in  Scotland,  Ireland,  and  Wales,  adopted  for 
their  motto  the  slogan  or  war-cry  of  their  sept,  which  was  sometimes  derived  from  the 
name  of  the  chieftain's  feudal  castle  ;  thus  Colquhoun  of  Luss  bears  "  Cnockelachan  ;  " 
Fitz- Gerald  of  Lcinster,  "  Crom  a  boo  ;  "  and  Ilughss  of  Gwerclas,  "  Kymmer-yu-

Edeirnion."  The  descendants  of  Irish  families  also  adopted  the  war-cry  of  their 
septs  as  mottoes ;  thus  O'Brien,  "  Lamh  laidir  an  nachtar,"  The  strong  hand  upper- 
most, "Lamh  dearg  Erin,"  The  red  hand  of  Ireland;  O'Hagan,  "  Buadh  no  has," 
Victory  or  death ;  O'Donovan,  "  GioUa  ar  a-namhuid  a-bu,"  A  man  over  his  enemy 
for  ever;  O'Gorman,  "  Tosach  catha  agus  deineadh  Slvc,'"  First  in  battle  and  fierce  in 
slaughter;  O'Doinn,  "  MuUach  a-bu,"  The  tops  of  the  mountains  for  ever,  &c.,  &c. 
Mottoes  not  infrequently  indicate  the  antiquity  and  derivation  of  the  families  by 
whom  they  are  borne.  In  "  Loywl  as  thow  fynds,"  we  recognise  the  Saxon  origin  of 
the  Tempests  of  Tong,  and  in  "  Tou^-s  jours  prest,"  the  Norman  ancestry  of  the 
Talbots  of  Bashall :  but  this  rule  is  far  from  being  general :  many  families  of  Norman 
origin  used  English  mottoes  at  a  very  early  period,  as  Darell  of  Calehill,  "  Trow  to 
you." 


CROWNS,  CORONETS,  CHAPEAUX,  HELMETS,  AND  MANTLES. 

Crowns  were  not  originally  marks  of  sovereignty,  but  were  bestowed  on  those 
who  gained  a  prize  at  the  Olympic  games,  and  at  first  were  only  bands  or  fillets,  but 
subsequently  they  assumed  various  forms  according  to  the  peculiar  feat  of  valour  the 
person  to  whom  they  were  granted  performed. 

The  Crown,  a  distinctive  badge  of  royalty,  was  anciently  made  open,  but  is 
now  closed  at  the  top  with  four  arches  and  is  usually  called  the  Imperial  Grown. 
That  used  at  the  coronation  of  the  Sovereigns  of  England  is  made  in  imitation 
of  the  Crown  supposed  to  have  been  worn  by  Edward  the  Confessor.  The  present 
imperial  Crown  has  the  rim  adorned  with  four  crosses  pattee,  and  as  many  fleurs-de-lis 
alternately.  From  each  cross  rises  an  arched  diadem  closed  at  the  top  under  a 
mound  supporting  a  cross.  The  cap  within  the  Crown  is  of  purple  velvet  (heraldic- 
ally  represented  crimson),  and  turned  up  with  ermine.      See  p.  xlix. 

The  Coronet  of  the  Prince  of  Wales  is,  according  to  a  warrant  of  Charles  II, 
dated  19  February,  1660,  composed  of  a  circle  or  fillet  of  gold,  adorned  with  four 
crosses  pattee,  and  as  many  fleurs-de-lis  alternately  ;  from  the  two  centre  crosses  rises 
an  arched  diadem,  closed  at  the  top  under  a  mound  supporting  a  cross,  one  arch  only 
from  the  centre  cross  appearing  in  the  representation.  The  cap  is  of  crimson  velvet, 
lined  with  white  sarsnet,  and  turned  up  with  ermine.  The  Prince  of  Wales  also  bears 
as  a  badge  a  plume  of  three  ostrich  feathers,  encircled  by  a  coronet  adorned  with 
crosses  and  fleurs-de-lis ;  the  motto  peculiar  to  this  badge  being  "  Ich  dien." 

The  Coronet  of  the  Princes  of  the  Blood  Royal  is  similar  to  that  of  the  Prince 
of  Wales,  without  the  arched  diadem.  The  cap  is  of  crimson  velvet,  bordered  with 
ermine,  with  a  tassel  of  gold. 

The  Princesses  bear  a  similar  Coronet,  but  instead  of  the  four  crosses  and  as 
many  fleurs-de-lis,  it  is  adorned  with  three  strawberry  leaves  alternately,  with  a 
similar  number  of  fleurs-de-lis  and  crosses. 

The  Arms  and  Coronets  of  the  Members  of  the  Royal  Family  are  always  assigned 
by  the  Sovereign  to  them  individually. 

The  Coronet  of  a  Duee  is  composed  of  a  circlet  of  gold,  chased  as  jewelled, 
having  raised  on  it  eight  golden  strawberry  leaves,  five  of  which  are  seen  in  repre- 
sentation. The  cap  is  of  crimson  velvet,  turned  up  ermine,  thereon  a  golden  tassel. 
It  is  sometimes  used  as  a  charge  in  armorial  bearings,  when  it  is  called  a  Ducal 
Coronet,  and  is  represented  with  only  three  strawberry  leaves,  and  without  the  cap, 
tassel,  or  ermine. 

The  Coronet  of  a  Marquess  is  a  circlet  of  gold,  chased  as  jewelled,  charged 
with  four  strawberry  leaves  and  as  many  large  pearls  alternately  ;  when  represented, 
only  two  pearls  and  three  leaves  appear.     The  cap  is  similar  to  that  of  a  Duke. 

An  Earl's  Coronet  is  a  circlet  of  gold,  chased  as  jewelled,  upon  which  rise  eight 
pyramidical  points  gold,  each  of  which  supports  a  large  silver  ball,  the  spaces  between 


xviii  HERALDRY. 

the  points  being  filled  up  at  the  bottom  with  strawberry  leaves  of  gold,  not  rising 
as  high  as  the  balls.  Only  five  of  the  balls  appear  when  heraldically  displayed. 
The  cap  is  the  same  as  the  Duke's  and  Marquess's. 

A  Viscount's  Coronet  is  a  circlet  of  gold,  cbased  as  jewelled,  supporting  sixteen 
silver  balls,  seven  of  which  appear  in  the  representation. 

The  Coronet  of  a  Baron  is  a  plain  circlet  of  gold,  thereon  six  silver  balls,  four  of 
which  are  seen  in  the  representation. 

The  two  last-named  Coronets  have  the  crimson  velvet  cap  with  the  tassel,  and 
the  edging  of  ermine,  the  same  as  those  of  a  Duke,  Marquess,  and  Earl.    See  p.  xxxiv. 

The  Coronet  of  a  King  of  Arms  is  silver  gilt,  formed  of  a  circle,  upon  which  is 
inscribed  part  of  the  first  verse  of  the  51st  Psalm,  viz.,  "  Miserere  mei  Deus  secundum 
magnam  misericordiam  tuam ;  "  the  rim  is  surmounted  with  sixteen  leaves,  in  shape 
resembling  the  oak  leaf,  every  alternate  one  being  somewhat  higher  than  the  rest, 
nine  of  which  appear  in  the  profile  view  of  it ;  the  cap  is  of  crimson  satin,  closed  at 
the  top  by  a  gold  tassel,  and  turned  up  with  ermine.     See  p.  xxxiv. 

A  crest-coronet  or  ducal  coronet,  on  which,  or  issuing  from  which  crests  are 
often  borne,  is  composed  of  a  circlet  of  gold  chased  and  jewelled,  having  raised  on  it 
four  strawberry  leaves,  three  of  which  appear  in  representation. 

As  the  Crown  of  the  Sovereign  of  England  is  not  exactly  similar  to  those  borne 
by  other  potentates,  so  most  of  the  Coronets  of  foreign  noblemen  are  different  from 
those  of  British  peers. 

Archbishops  and  Bishops  bear  the  arms  of  their  Sees  impaled  with  their  own 
family  arms,  without  crest  or  motto,  and  with  a  mitre  over  the  shield.  The  mitre  of 
both  Archbishops  and  Bishops  is  (with  the  exception  of  the  mitre  of  the  Bishop  of 
Durham)  exactly  the  same.  It  is  a  high  golden  cap,  enriched  with  jewels,  pointed 
and  divided  at  the  top,  with  fringed  pendants  hanging  from  the  lower  part ;  each  top 
is  surmounted  by  a  cross,  the  present  usual  form  of  which  is  that  of  a  cross-pattee. 
The  mitre  of  the  Bishop  of  Durham  differs  from  that  of  the  other  Prelates  in  being 
encircled  with  a  ducal  coronet. 

The  Helmet,  helme,  casque,  or,  morion,  varied  in  shape  in  different  ages  and 
countries.     See  p.  xxxiii. 

The  Mantle,  Guillim  informs  us,  was  named  from  the  French  word  "  Manteau" 
and  served  as  a  protection  (being  spread  over  and  pendent  from  the  helmet)  "to  repel 
the  extremity  of  wet,  cold,  and  heat,  and  withal  to  preserve  the  accoutrements  from 
mst."  Guillim  thus  continues  :  "  Mantles,  like  other  habits,  have  not  escaped  trans- 
formation, but  have  passed  through  the  forge  of  fanatical  conceit,  in  so  much  as 
(beside  the  bare  name)  there  remaineth  neither  shape  nor  shadow  of  a  mantle.  But 
as  they  are  used  in  achievements,  whether  you  call  them  mantles  or  flourishings,  they 
are  evermore  said  in  blazon  to  be  doubled,  that  is,  lined  throughout  with  some  one 
of  the  furs." 

The  mantle  is  sometimes  termed  a  Lambrequin  or  Lamequin.  The  numerous 
strips  and  cuts  into  which  it  is  usually  divided,  are  supposed  to  indicate  that  it  has 
been  thus  torn  and  hacked  in  the  field  of  battle,  and  betokened  a  certain  evidence  of 
prowess. 

The  Chapeau  (cap  of  maintenance  or  dignity)  is  of  crimson  velvet,  lined  with 
ermine,  turned  up  into  points  at  the  back.  It  was  formerly  a  badge  of  high  dignity, 
and  is  now  borne  under  the  crest  of  several  eminent  families,  instead  of  the  wreath. 


SUPPORTERS. 

Sdpporters  date  from  the  fourteenth  century.  Menestrier  and  other  authorities 
ascribe  their  origin  to  a  practice  at  the  tournaments,  and  the  ground  on  which  they 
base  their  opinions  Hccms  tenable  enough.  In  those  chivalrous  pastimes  no  one  was 
suffered  to  participate  but  he  who  was  of  noble  descent  or  warlike  renown,  and  each 


HERALDRY.  xix 

champion,  to  prove  his  title  to  those  qualifications,  exhibited  his  armorial  shield  upon 
the  barriers  and  pavilions  within  the  lists.  Pages  and  esquires  attended  to  watch 
their  masters'  escutcheons,  and  to  report  the  name  and  quality  of  any  knight  who 
thought  proper  to  challenge  to  the  encounter.  The  chroniclers  further  relate,  that  on 
these  occasions  the  armour  bearers,  who  were  thus  employed,  assumed  the  most 
grotesque,  fantastic  costume,  enveloping  themselves  in  the  skins  of  lions  or  bears,  and 
that  hence  arose  the  custom  of  using  supporters.  Of  these  masquerade  characters, 
several  curious  specimens  may  be  found  in  the  illuminated  manuscripts  of  Froissart, 
in  the  British  Museum. 

The  appropriation  of  supporters,  as  legitimate  parts  of  armorial  bearings,  does 
not  appear  to  have  been  recognised  in  England,  earlier  than  the  reign  of  Edward  III. 
An  heraldic  document,  compiled  by  Cooke,  Clarenceux,  in  1572,  indicates  the  various 
changes  the  royal  supporters  underwent :  Edward  III.  adopted  dexter,  a  lion  rampant; 
and  sinister,  a  raven,  both  crowned  ;  Richard  II.  a  lion  and  a  stag ;  Henry  IV.  an 
antelope  and  a  swan  ;  Henry  V.  a  lion  and  an  antelope ;  Henry  VI.  an  antelope  and 
a  leopard;  Edward  IV.  a  bull  and  a  lion;  Richard  III.  a  lion  and  a  boar;  Henry  VII. 
a  dragon  and  a  greyhound ;  Henry  VIII.  the  same ;  Edward  VI.  a  lion  and  a  dragon 
Mary  I.,  an  eagle  and  a  dragon  ;  and  Queen  Elizabeth  the  same  as  her  brother  Edward. 
King  James  I.,  on  ascending  the  English  throne,  introduced  the  unicorn  of  Scotland, 
and  from  that  monarch's  reign  to  our  own  times  the  lion  and  the  unicorn  have 
remained  the  royal  supporters. 

The  position  of  these  external  ornaments  of  the  shield  is,  in  genuine  and  ancient 
Heraldry,  always  erect ;  and  surely  nothing  qan  be  more  at  variance  with  true 
blazonry  than  the  absurd  attempt  of  some  modern  artists  to  display  them  in 
picturesque  attitudes.  Thus  the  characteristics  of  a  rude  and  contemporary  era  are 
violently  destroyed,  and  the  vestiges  of  the  graphic  art  confused  or  annihilated. 

In  England  the  right  to  bear  supporters  is  confined  to  Peers  of  the  Realm, 
Knights  of  the  Garter,  the  Thistle,  and  St.  Patrick  ;  Knights  Grand  Cross  of 
THE  Bath  (G.C.B.)  ;  Knights  Grand  Cross  of  St.  Michael  and  St.  George 
(G.C.  St.  M.  St.  G.)  ;  and  to  those  Baronets  and  others  (of  which  the  number 
is  extremely  limited)  who  may  have  obtained  them  by  special  grant.  The  prac- 
tice of  the  Sovereigns  of  England  granting  Supporters  to  the  Peers  of  each 
degree,  seems  to  have  commenced  in  the  reign  of  Henry  VIII.,  as  did  that  of 
granting  the  like  ornaments  to  the  Knights  of  the  Garter  and  Bath.  Further, 
in  addition  to  these.  Supporters  are  assumed  and  borne,  but  without  any  legal 
right,  by  the  heirs  apparent  of  dukes,  marquesses,  and  earls,  and  by  all  the 
children  of  peers,  to  whom  courtesy  allows  the  prefix  of  "Lord."  In  ancient 
times,  too,  many  eminent  though  unentitled  families  used  these  appurtenances 
to  their  shields.  Edmondson  says,  "  It  may  be  justly  concluded  that  those  who 
used  such  additions  to  their  shields,  or  on  their  shields,  banners,  or  monuments, 
or  had  them  carved  in  stone  or  wood,  or  depicted  on  the  glass  windows  of  their 
mansion,  and  in  the  churches,  chapels,  and  religious  houses  of  their  foundation,  as 
perspicuous  evidences  and  memorials  of  their  having  a  possessory  right  to  them,  are 
fully  and  absolutely  well  entitled  to  bear  them,  and  that  no  one  of  their  descendants 
ever  ought  to  alienate  such  supporters,  or  bear  their  arms  without  them."  Among  the 
distinguished  houses  that  use  supporters  under  these  circumstances,  we  may  mention 
those  of  Fulford  of  Great  Fulford,  Devon,  Trevanion  of  Cornwall,  Savage  of  Cheshire, 
Stawell  and  Luttrell  of  Somersetshire,  Hilton  of  Hilton,  and  Tichborne  of  Tichborne. 
In  Ireland,  the  heads  of  the  different  septs  assert  their  claim  to  them,  but  no  registry 
of  supporters  to  an  Irish  chieftain  appears  in  Ulster's  Office,  in  right  of  his  chief  taincv 
only,  and  without  the  honour  of  peerage,  nor  does  any  authority  to  bear  them  exist. 
In  Scotland,  the  right  to  supporters  belongs  to  the  representatives  of  minor  barons 
who  had  full  baronial  rights  prior  to  1587,  and  to  the  heads  of  a  limited  number  of 
importajit  families,  including  the  chiefs  of  the  more  considerable  clans.  Lyon  may 
also  confer  supporters  e  gratia,  a  prerogative  which,  generally  speaking,  has  been  very 


XX  HERALDRY. 

sparingly  exercised.     Nova  Scotia  baronets  have,  as  such,  no  right  to  supporters, 
though  many  of  them  bear  them  in  respect  of  the  baronial  qualification. 


BANNERS  AND  STANDARDS. 

The  Banner  is  coeval  with  the  introduction  of  Heraldry,  and  dates  consequently 
from  the  twelfth  century.  It  was  of  nearly  a  square  form,  exhibiting  the  owner's 
arms,  and  it  served  as  the  rallying  point  of  the  several  divisions  of  which  the  army 
was  composed.  To  judge  from  the  siege  of  Carlaverock,  it  would  seem  that  early  in 
the  fourteenth  century  there  was  a  banner  to  every  twenty-five  or  thirty  men-at- 
arms,  and  that  thus  the  battle  array  was  marshalled,  kt  that  period  the  English 
forces  comprised  the  tenants  in  capite  of  the  Crown,  with  their  followers ;  and  it 
appears  that  such  tenants  were  entitled  to  lead  their  contingent  under  a  banner  of 
their  arms ;  but  the  precise  number  of  men  so  furnished,  which  conferred  this 
privilege,  has  not  been  ascertained.  When  the  tenant  in  capite  was  unable  to  attend 
in  person,  from  illness  or  other  cause,  he  nevertheless  sent  his  quota  of  soldiers  or 
archers  which  the  tenure  of  his  lands  enjoined,  and  his  banner  was  committed  to  the 
charge  of  a  deputy  of  equal  rank  to  his  own.  Thus,  at  Carlaverock,  the  Bishop  of 
Durham  sent  one  handred  and  sixty  of  his  men-at-arms,  with  his  banner  entrusted  to 
John  de  Hastings;  and  "the  good  Edmund,  Lord  d'Eyncourt,"  who  could  not 
attend  himself,  sent  "  ses  deux  bons  filz  en  son  lieu  mist,"  (his  two  brave  sons 
in  his  stead),  and  with  them  his  banner  of  ""  blue,  billetee  of  gold  with  a  dancette 
over  all." 

The  right  to  bear  a  banner  was  confined  to  bannerets  and  persons  of  higher 
rank.  In  1361,  Edward  III.  granted  to  Sir  Gruy  de  Bryan  two  hundred  marks  a  year 
for  having  discreetly  borne  the  king's  banner  at  the  siege  of  Calais  in  1347 ;  and 
Thomas  Strickland,  the  esquire  who  so  gallantly  sustained  the  banner  of  Henry  V.  at 
Agincourt,  urged  the  service  as  worthy  of  remuneration  from  Henry  VI.  In  France, 
80  long  as  the  chivalry  of  the  old  regime  endured,  and  the  observances  derived  from 
St.  Louis,  Francis  I.,  and  Louis  XIV.  were  respected,  the  custody  of  the  Oriflamme 
was  hereditary;  and  still  in  Scotland  the  representative  of  the  great  house  of 
Scrymgeour  enjoys  the  honour  of  being  banner-bearer  to  the  sovereign.  Ireland 
claims  a  higher  antiquity  in  the  use  of  banners  and  standards  than  any  other 
European  nation — penetrating  even  beyond  the  Christian  era.  The  office  of 
standard-bearer  was  hereditary  in  families,  as,  for  instance,  the  O'Hanlons  were 
hereditary  standard-bearers  to  the  O'Neills,  and  the  Mac  AfEreys  to  the  McGuires. 
"Three  lions  rampant  "  were  borne  on  the  banner  of  O'Brien,  and  "  the  red  hand  " 
was  emblazoned  on  that  of  O'Neill.  The  different  septs  or  clans  rushed  to  battle  with 
their  banners  borne  aloft,  and  uttering  war-cries.  That  of  O'Brien,  iam^  laider  a-bu  ! 
*'  The  strong  hand  for  ever ! "  but  after  the  Anglo-Norman  period  these  war  cries  became 
Anglicised,  as,  for  instance,  "O'Neill  a-bu!"  "  O'Donnell  a-bu!"  i.e.,  "O'Neill 
for  ever,"  "  O'Donnell  for  ever."  The  great  Anglo-Norman  families  followed  the 
example,  by  adopting  similar  war-cries.  The  Fitz-Geralds  had  "  Crom  a-bu!"  the 
Butlers  of  Ormonde,  "Butler  a-bu!"  and  the  Burkes  or  De  Burgos  had  "  Clanrickard 
a-bu  !  "  and   "  MocWilliam  a-bu  ! " 

The  Standard  was  long  and  narrow,  and  split  at  the  end.  In  the  upper  part 
of  the  English  standard  appeared  the  Cross  of  St.  George,  the  remainder  being 
charged  with  the  motto,  crest,  or  badge,  but  never  with  the  arms.  It  is  difficult  to 
determine  the  qualifications  which  constituted  a  right  to  a  standard,  but  there  is 
reason  to  believe  that  no  person  under  the  rank  of  a  knight  could  use  one. 

The  length  of  the  standards  varied  according  to  the  rank  of  the  bearer ;  the 
King's  was  from  eight  to  nine  yards  in  length ;  that  of  a  Duke  seven  yards  ;  of  a 
Marquess,  six  yards  and  a  half;  of  an  Earl,  six  yards  ;  of  a  Viscount,  six  yards  and 


HERALDRY.  xxi 

a  half  ;  of  a  Baron  five  yards ;  of  a  Banneret,  four  yards  and  a  half;  and  of  a  Knight, 
four  yards. 

Two  manuscripts  in  the  British  Museum,  not  older  in  date  than  the  reign  of 
Henry  VIII.,  afford  the  most  authentic  information  as  to  the  size  of  banners, 
standards,  and  pennons.  A.  question  having  been  recently  raised  as  to  what  is  the 
proper  flag  (if  any)  to  be  hoisted  over  a  private  gentleman's  mansion,  and  what  the 
correct  armorial  bearings  to  be  displayed  thereon,  it  appears  there  is  not  any 
direct  authority  or  rule  on  the  subject,  but  it  is  understood  that  the  flag  (if  allowed) 
should  display  the  arms  of  the  possessor  of  the  mansion  only,  and  though  the 
banner  of  St.  George  has  been  sometimes  used,  and  the  Union  Jack  has  been  also 
displayed,  this  seems  to  be  an  error,  as  no  right  exists  for  such. 


HATCHMENTS. 

How  many  are  there  who  look  on  these  heraldic  decorations  as  mere  general 
emblems  of  mortality,  indicating  nothing  more  than  that  a  death  has  lately  occurred. 
Yet  we  can,  on  making  ourselves  acquainted  with  the  simple  rules  by  which  the 
arrangement  of  several  achievements  is  regulated,  at  once  know  what  rank  the 
deceased  held  when  Kving.  If  the  hatchment  be  that  of  a  lady,  whether  she  was 
unmarried,  a  wife,  or  widow ;  if  that  of  a  gentleman,  whether  he  was  a  bachelor,  a 
married  man,  or  a  widower. 

To  show  how  easily  this  information  can  be  acquired,  I  will  briefly  state  the 
several  distinctions. 

On  the  morning  of  interment,  a  hatchment  is  placed  on  the  front  of  the  house 
belonging  to  the  deceased,  and  another  over  the  vault  or  tomb  after  burial. 

The  funeral  escutcheon  of  a  bachelor,  represents  his  paternal  arms  single,  or 
quartered  with  those  to  which  he  may  be  entitled,  and  accompanied  with  the  helmet, 
crest,  and  motto.  The  ground  of  the  hatchment  (the  vacant  canvas  of  each  side  of 
the  shield)  is  black. 

For  a  viaiden,  her  paternal  arms  are  placed  in  a  lozenge,  single  or  quartered  as 
those  of  a  bachelor,  with  no  other  ornament  than  a  gold  cord  loosely  knotted  at  the 
top  of  the  lozenge.  The  ground  outside  the  shield  is,  like  the  former  hatchment, 
black. 

When  a  husband  dies,  leaving  his  wife  surviving,  the  ground  on  the  dexter  side 
of  the  hatchment  (that  is,  the  side  of  the  escutcheon  opposite  the  left  hand  of  the 
person  looking  at  it)  is  black  ;  and  that  on  the  sinister  side  (opposite  the  right  hand 
of  the  spectator)  is  white.  The  arms  in  this  case  are  impaled,  that  is,  divided  by  a 
perpendicular  line  down  the  centre  of  the  shield ;  those  of  the  husband  at  the  dexter 
side  being  black,  to  indicate  his  death.  The  crest  is  placed  over  the  shield,  and 
beneath  it  the  family  motto. 

When  a  wife  dies,  leaving  her  husband  surviving,  the  ground  of  the  hatchment 
is  black  on  the  side  opposite  to  the  right  hand  of  the  person  looking  at  it ;  at  the 
opposite  side  white.  Their  arms  are  displayed  as  in  the  preceding  case,  but  without 
crest  or  motto,  and  the  shield  appears  suspended  by  a  ribbon  in  a  bow,  and 
ornamented  with  a  cherub's  head  and  wings. 

The  hatchments  of  ladies  (except  peeresses,  who  are  entitled  to  a  robe  of  estate) 
are  always  without  mantle,  helmet,  crest,  or  family  motto,  although  funeral  words  and 
sentences  are  sometimes  introduced. 

A  widower's  hatchment  represents  his  arms  with  those  of  his  wife  in  the  same 
manner  as  when  living ;  that  is  impaled,  or  divided  by  a  perpendicular  line  down 
the  centre  of  the  shield.  His  crest  and  motto  are  also  emblazoned,  and  all  the 
ground  outside  the  escutcheon  is  black. 

The   hatchment  of  a  widow  represents  her  arms  impaled  with  those   of  her

husband  and  enclosed  in  a  lozenge,  having  a  bow  of  ribbon  at  the  top,  and  ornamented 
with  a  cherub's  head  and  wings ;  all  the  ground  outside  the  shield  being  black. 

For  a  man  leaving  a  second  wife,  the  hatchment  represents  his  arms  (not  impaled) 
on  a  black  ground.  On  the  dexter  side,  or  that  opposite  the  left  hand  of  the 
spectator,  is  placed,  apart  fi"om  the  shield  of  the  husband,  a  small  funeral  escutcheon, 
on  which  his  arms,  with  those  of  his  first  wife,  are  impaled ;  all  the  ground  at  this 
side  of  the  hatchment  being  black,  to  indicate  her  decease.  On  the  opposite  side  of 
the  hatchment,  that  is,  facing  the  right  hand  of  the  person  looking  at  it,  another 
small  escutcheon  is  similarly  placed  apart  from  the  husband's  shield,  and  on  it  are  dis- 
played his  arms  impaled  with  those  of  his  second  wife  ;  the  ground  at  the  extreme 
sinister  side  of  the  shield  being  white,  to  show  that  she  survives  him. 

If  a  widower  or  a  bachelor  be  the  last  of  his  family,  a  skull  or  death's  head 
(heraldically  termed  a  mart)  is  annexed  to  the  escutcheon — -the  arms,  crest,  and  motto 
beino-  displayed  in  the  manner  already  described ;  and  the  hatchment  of  a  maid  or  widow, 
who  is  the  last  of  her  house,  represents  the  arms  in  a  lozenge,  with  a  "tnort  annexed. 

The  hatchments  of  Peers  and  Peeresses  have  their  distinguishing  coronets. 

On  the  hatchments  of  Baronets  a  front-faced,  open  helmet  is  placed  over  the 
shield,  on  some  part  of  which  is  displayed  the  red  hand. 

The  armorial  bearings  of  Knights  are  surrounded  with  the  insignia  of  their 
respective  orders,  and  surmounted  with  the  front-faced  open  helmet,  which  is  also 
assigned  to  knights  bachelors. 

The  hatchments  of  Archbishops  and  Bishops  represent  their  arms  impaled  with 
those  of  their  See;  the  latter  being  placed  on  the  dexter  side,  that  is,  opposite 
the  left  hand  of  the  person  who  looks  at  it,  consequently  the  opposite  side  is  painted 
black,  that  under  the  arms  of  the  see  being  white. 

The  hatchment  of  the  wife  of  an  Archbishop  or  Bishop  represents  two  shields  ; 
that  to  the  left  of  the  spectator  displays  the  arms  of  the  See  impaling  the 
paternal  coat,  and  surmounted  by  the  mitre.  The  sinister  shield  (that  to  the 
spectator's  right)  is  suspended  by  a  knot,  bearing  the  prelate's  family  arms  impaled 
with  those  of  his  wife  :  the  surface  of  the  hatchment  underneath  the  sinister  shield 
being  black,  to  denote  the  lady's  death. 

The  same  rule  is  observed  with  respect  to  the  hatchments  of  the  wives  of  Knights 
of  the  different  orders,  while  those  of  Peeresses  who  have  married  commoners  display 
the  arms  of  their  dignity  at  the  sinister  side  (that  is,  the  side  opposite  the  spectator's 
right),  apart  from  the  heraldic  bearings  of  their  husbands. 


SEIZE  QUARTIERS. 

If  title  be  with  us  the  test  of  position  and  precedence,  the  Seize  Quartiers  have 
been  considered  in  Continental  Europe  as  the  test  of  blood,  or  what  is  strictly 
signified  by  tiie  term  "  birth."  It  is  the  reverse  of  what  is  generally  understood  by 
"  a  family  tree,"  for  there,  the  stream  commencing  with  the  earliest  known  ancestor, 
flows  down  to  the  living  generation;  but  in  the  "  seize  quartiers,"  beginning  with 
the  latter,  the  stream,  dividing  on  the  mother's  and  father's  sides  into  two  lines, 
Ihence  continues  to  ascend,  ramifying  into  the  several  sources  whence  it  derives  the 
vital  current.  Thus  at  a  glance  is  displayed  and  analysed  the  heraldic  componency  of 
the  warm  flood  circulating  beneath  each  blazoned  breast,  betraying  any  alloying 
admixture  that  may  exist,  and  may,  as  in  the  pedigree  of  a  race-horse  (if  I  may 
venture  to  use  the  simile),  disentitle  it  to  the  character  of  "thorough-bred." 

Increasing  ])y  a  regular  succession  of  reduplications  in  every  generation,  the  range 
of  that  of  the  great-groat-grandfathcr  displays  a  series  of  sixteen  shields  of  arms, 
the  "seize  quartiers  ;  "  the  generation  beyond  has  thirty-two  shields,  that  succeeding 
it,  sixty-four,  and  so  on  till  in  the  thirtieth  generation  the  series  of  names  for  that 
generation  alone  would  exceed  the  present  estimated  population  of  the  whole  globe  ; 


HERALDRY.  xxiu 

and  when  the  number,  diminishing  by  one-half  in  each  descending  step,  is  added  to 
the  above,  the  total  of  individaals  whose  blood  is  transmitted  into  the  living  man  is 
something  prodigious ;  consequently  the  number  ascending  to  the  beginning  of  the 
world  would  be  utterly  uncountable.  In  this  latter  case  it  must  be  observed  that 
the  same  individual  must  have  figured  several  times  in  different  positions  of  relation- 
ship, for  otherwise  in  the  generation  contemporaneous  with  the  creation  of  man,  the 
broad  array  of  progenitors  would  be  totally  incompatible  with  the  solitary  Adam  and 
Eve,  the  fountain  sources  of  all  human  blood. 

The  ancient  chivalry  of  St.  John  of  Jerusalem,  which  bore  successively  the  titles 
of  Knights  of  Rhodes  and  Knights  of  Malta,  was  variously  exacting  in  its  require- 
ments of   proof   of  noble   birth    from   candidates  seeking  admission  to   its  ranks. 
Vertot,  the  historian  of  the  Order,  tells  us  that  the  languages  of  Provence,  Auvergne, 
and  France  were  obliged  to  prove  eight  quarters,  or  coats  of  arms,  that  is  the  genera- 
tion  of    great-grandfathers    and   great- grandmothers ;    Italy,    only    four    quarters 
or  shields,  i.e.,  the  grandfathers  and  grandmothers  ;  but  it  was  required  that  these 
four  quarters  should  belong  to  families  of  a  noblesse  acknowledged  for  the  pre- 
ceding two  hundred  years.     Four  quarters  was  the  number  also  required   from  the 
language  of  Aragon  and  Castile,  including  Portugal,  but  for  German  knights  sixteen 
quarters  were  necepsary,  that  being  the  number  demanded  by  the  Teutonic  Order 
from  its  postulants.     This  is  and  was  at  all  times  considered  a  very  rigorous  ordeal, 
requiring  often  most  laborious  searches  among  archives  and  sources  difficult  of  access, 
as  well  as  condemning  numbers  to   exclusion,  for  it  is  not  alone  in  our  days  that 
ruined  gentle  blood  sought  to  establish  itself  by  union  with  merely  plebeian  gold  : 
title  availed  nothing. 

The  mode  of  proceeding  in  drawing  up  a  pedigree  of  "  Seize  Quartiers,"  is  as 
follows,  and  the  progression  is  very  simple,  though  not  generally  understood :  the 
very  words  being  familiarly  comprehended  neither  as  to  their  verbal  import,  the 
rarity  of  the  possession  of  such  a  pedigree,  even  among  some  of  the  most  proudly 
titled  families  in  the  peerage,  its  intrinsic  genealogical  value  abroad  amid  heraldic 
nations,  or  its  being  the  real  and  actual  test  of  the  nobility  of  the  blood  of  any 
individual. 

First  write  down  the  name  of  the  postulant,  then  above  his  name  those  of  his 
father  and  mother,  which  form  thus  two  quarters  :  the  father's  father  and  mother 
then  follow,  and  the  mother's  father  and  mother  fill  up  the  line  of  getieration,  i.e., 
the  grandfathers  and  grandmothers.  Proceeding  in  the  same  way,  we  next  mark 
down  the  father  and  mother  of  each  grandfather  and  grandmother,  which  form  the 
line  of  great-grandfathers  and  great-grandmothers,  eight  individuals,  quarters  or 
coats  of  arms  ;  and  the  succeeding  line  of  fathers  and  mothers  of  each  great-grand- 
father and  great-grandmother,  constitute  the  series  of  the  great-great-grandfathers 
and  great-great- grandmothers,  or  sixteen  quarters.  This  ramification,  however,  is 
best  understood  by  a  glance  at  the  following  diagram  : 

Eight  paternal  quarterings.  Eight  maternal  quarterings.

xxiv  HERALDRY. 

I  have  thus  endeavoured  to  explain  the  exact  meaning  of  "  Seize  Quar- 
tiers."  By  the  universal  consent  of  continental  Europe,  the  sixteen  quarters 
have  been  considered  the  test  of  blood;  they  have  at  all  times  been  the  Sesame 
which  has  opened  the  door  of  every  presence-chamber  of  royalty,  of  every 
high  place  at  foreign  courts,  and  of  every  rich  and  noble  Chapter.  Nevertheless, 
according  to  our  English  notions,  this  test  is  rather,  I  think,  one  of  curiosity  than 
real  value  ;  for,  compare  the  continental  nobility,  which  very  generally  still  possesses 
it,  with  the  British  nobility,  which  very  rarely  does,  and  mark  the  difference  between 
them.  Our  own  aristocracy  yields  to  none  other  in  high  breeding,  honour,  noble 
daring,  brilliancy  of  ancestry,  talent,  and  simple,  unostentatious  grandeur  of  character, 
and  yet,  comparatively  speaking,  few  even  among  that  elevated  class  can  trace  their 
descent  up  to  sixteen  families  on  both  sides  entitled  to  armorial  bearings  ;  or,  at 
least,  in  cases  where  this  is  practicable,  many  of  the  progenitors  are  of  a  very 
secondary  station,  and  belong  to  a  gentry  wholly  without  illustration.  The  proof  of 
value  is  its  result ;  and  considering  that  the  aristocracy  of  Britain  may  justly  claim 
superiority  over  the  more  exclusively  well-bom  aristocracy  of  the  rest  of  Europe,  I 
cannot  bring  myself  to  believe  that  the  test  of  "  the  Seize  Quartiers  "  enters,  neces- 
sarily, into  the  composition  of  a  first-rate  English  nobleman  or  gentleman.  That 
which  is  truly  ennobling  is  a  long  line  of  gentle  ancestors,  either  from  father  to  son, 
or  through  heiresses  bringing  the  right  of  representation,  combined  with  honourable 
and  appropriate  alliances.  Who  would  venture  to  dispute  the  nobility  of  birth  of 
the  ducal  representative  of  the  Douglases  and  the  Hamiltons,  on  the  ground  that  an 
alliance  with  a  Gunning  or  a  Beckford  might  perchance  interfere  with  the  perfection 
of  the  German  test  of  "  the  Seize  Quartiers  ?  " 

KINGS  OF  ARMS  AND  HERALDS. 

The  office  of  "  King  of  Arms  "  is  of  feudal  origin,  and  was  one  of  the  attributes 
of  the  pomp  and  splendour  annexed  to  feudal  sovereignty.  There  is  no  trace  of  such 
an  institution  anterior  to  the  Norman  invasion,  which  overturned  the  pre-existing 
system  in  England,  formed  as  it  had  been  by  a  fusion  of  the  usages  of  the  ancient 
Britons,  Saxons,  and  Danes.  Having  so  overturned  it,  the  Normans  introduced  the 
military  and  chivalrous  code  of  feuds,  with  its  homage,  and  fealty,  and  services.  Sir 
Henry  Spelman  is  of  opinion  that  the  title  of  King  of  Arms  was  attributed  to  such 
heraldic  officers  in  England  as  belonged  immediately  to  the  person  of  the  King's 
majesty,  while  those  who  appertained  to  princes  of  the  blood  royal,  or  to  the  nobility, 
were  staled  simply  Heralds.  Another  learned  author  states  that  the  title  of  "  King 
of  Heralds  (of  later  times  called  King  of  Arms)  was  given  to  that  personage  who 
was  the  chief  or  principal  officer  presiding  over  the  heralds  of  any  kingdom,  or  of 
any  particular  province  usually  termed  the  marches,  or  of  any  order  of  knighthood." 

The  primary  duty  of  the  English  Kings  of  Arms  and  Heralds,  at  the  time  of 
their  establishment,  corresponded  with  that  of  the  Heralds  of  foreign  princes ;  they 
carried  and  delivered  all  messages  of  importance  to  allies,  enemies,  and  rebels,  gave 
solemn  defiances  and  denunciations  of  war;  summoned  cities,  castles,  &c.,  to  sur- 
render ;  made  propositions  of  peace,  truce,  and  accommodation,  and  offered  mercy 
and  pardon  to  rebellious  subjects  and  insurgents.  They  had  also  the  cognizance, 
inspection,  marshalling,  and  regulation  of  coats  of  armour,  and  the  several  marks  of 
distinction  connected  with  them  ;  they  received  all  foreign  nobility  and  others  coming 
to  England  to  perform  feats  of  arms,  and  gave  safe  conduct  to  them  from  their 
arrival  to  the  time  of  their  leaving  the  kingdom;  assisted  at  tilts,  tournaments,  and 
feats  of  arms,  and  attended  to  the  honour  and  reputation  of  military  persons,  and  to 
the  safety,  welfare,  and  defence  of  the  King  and  his  realms.  They  had  also  the 
arrangement,  order,  and  progress  of  legal  combats;  were  likewise  employed  in 
marshalling  and  conducting  coronations,  marriages,  baptisms,  funerals,  interviews, 
and    other    august    assemblies,    processions,   pomps,  and  solemnities  of  the  ancient 


HERALDRY.  xxv 

monarclis,  and  took  care  that  the  orders,  rites,  and  ceremonies  established  for  those 
ceremonials  were  duly  observed;  and  that  the  rules  of  precedence  were  strictly 
adhered  to. 

The  pride  and  ambition  of  the  nobility  prompted  them  to  imitate,  and  oftentimes 
to  vie  with,  their  Monarclis  in  state  and  magnificence.  Hence  it  is  that  we  find 
the  Heralds  attending  at  the  faneral  rites  and  ceremonies  of  the  nobility,  as  well  as 
at  the  celebration  of  their  marriages,  christenings,  and  other  festivities,  and  practising 
the  same  forms  and  grandeur  as  were  observed  at  those  of  the  royal  family. 

Noble  and  illustrious  descent  having  also  been  held  in  high  esteem,  strict 
attention  was  paid  to  the  observance  of  a  just  and  exact  distinction  between  the 
different  ranks  or  classes  of  the  people.  The  ignoble  never  presumed,  in  those  ancient 
times,  to  arrogate  a  participation  in  the  rights  annexed  to  eminence  of  parentage,  or 
to  claim  honours  to  which  their  superiors  alone  were  entitled.  And  the  nobiKty  and 
gentry,  cautiously  jealous  of  their  dignity,  avoided  mixing  with  the  vulgar,  and  were 
sedulously  careful  for  the  preservation,  on  all  public  and  solemn  occasions,  of  that 
purity  of  rank  and  precedence  which  was  due  by  the  feudal  system  to  their  birth 
and  station  in  life.  Family  arms  being  the  general  criterion  which  distinguished  the 
gentleman  from  the  peasant,  no  persons  were  suffered  to  enter  the  lists  to  tourney,  or 
exercise  any  feats  of  arms,  unless  they  could,  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  Kings  of  Arms, 
prove  themselves  to  be  gentlemen  of  "  Coat  Armour."  And  the  ancient  gentry  took 
particular  care  to  have  their  arms  embroidered  on  their  common-wearing  over-coats, 
and  would  not  suffer  any  person  of  the  lower  class,  although  become  rich,  to  use 
such  tokens  of  gentle  birth  and  distinction ;  nay,  so  jealous  were  they  of  any 
infringement  of  the  armorial  rights  to  which  they  were  entitled,  that  whenever  the 
arms  which  they  and  their  families  had  borne  happened  to  be  claimed  by  any  other 
gentlemen,  they  vindicated  their  rights  in  the  military  courts,  and  very  often  by  duel. 
Under  those  circumstances  it  became  essential  and  was  a  necessary  part  of  the  duties 
of  Heralds,  to  draw  out,  with  accuracy  and  exactness,  the  authentic  genealogies  of 
noble  families,  and  families  of  "  gentle  birth  "  to  continue,  and  from  time  to  time,  to 
add  to  and  preserve  their  pedigrees  in  direct  and  collateral  lines;  and  to  have  a 
perfect  knowledge  of  all  hereditary  arms,  ensigns,  badges  of  honour,  and  the  external 
marks  as  well  of  personal  as  of  family  rank  and  distinction. 

Some  portion  of  the  ancient  duties  of  the  Herald  has  become  obsolete  with  the 
decay  of  the  feudal  system,  but  enough  remains  to  render  the  office  important  and 
useful.  That  branch  of  his  labours  connected  with  genealogy  is  valuable  in  the 
highest  degree.  Genealogical  tables  and  authentic  pedigrees,  regularly  deduced, 
contain  memorials  of  past  transactions  and  events,  and  from  them  chronologers  and 
historians  have  drawn  very  considerable  assistance ;  they  have  operated  to  the  detec- 
tion of  frauds,  forgeries,  and  impostures ;  cleared  up  doubts  and  difficulties ; 
established  marriages ;  supported  and  defended  legitimacy  and  purity  of  blood ; 
ascertained  family  alliances ;  proved  and  maintained  affinity  and  consanguinity ; 
vindicated  and  corroborated  the  titles  of  lands  to  their  possessors  ;  and  have  been  of 
essential  use  in  settling  claims  and  rights  of  inheritance  without  litigation,  by 
furnishing  effectual  evidence.  Such  has  been,  and  ever  must  be,  the  utiUty  of 
genealogies,  when  they  are  framed  with  integrity  and  authenticated  by  evidence. 

The  HERALDIC  AUTHORITY  ovcr  England  and  Wales  is  delegated  by  the  Crown  to 
the  hereditary  Earl  Marshal  (the  Duke  of  Norfolk),  and  three  Kings  of  Arms, 
Garter,  Clarenceux,  and  Norroy,  who  form,  together  with  the  Heralds  and 
Pursuivants,  the  College  of  Arms.  Of  these,  the  principal  is  "Garter  King  of 
Arms."  In  his  Patent  he  is  styled  Principal  King  of  English  Arms,  and  Principal 
Officer  of  Arms  of  the  most  noble  Order  of  the  Garter.  To  him  immediately  belongs, 
inter  alia,  the  adjustment  of  arms  in  England  and  Wales,  and  likewise  the  power  of 
granting  arms  under  the  authority  of  the  Earl  Marshal,  in  conjunction  with  the 
provincial  Kings  of  Arms  occording  to  their  several  jurisdictions,  to  persons  qualified 
to   bear   them.      "  Clarenceux    King  of  Arms,"   so   named    from   the    Dukedom  of 


ssvi  HERALDRY. 

Clarence,  bas  jurisdiction  over  the  south-east  and  west  parts  of  England ;  and 
"  Norroy  King  of  Arms,"  the  most  ancient  of  the  heraldic  sovereigns  in  England 
possesses  as  his  province,  England  north  of  the  Trent.  He  is  the  North  King — 
"  Norroy."  The  Enghsh  Heralds  bear  the  designation  of  "  Windsor,"  "  Chester," 
"Somerset,"  "Lancaster,"  "York,"  and  "Richmond,"  the  Pursuivants  are  known 
by  the  names  of  "  Rouge  Dragon,"  "  Rouge  Croix,"  "  Bluemantle,"  and  "  Portcullis." 
The  date  of  the  creation  of  the  historic  and  dignified  ofl&ce  of  Garter  Kino  of 
Arms  may  be  fixed  with  certainty  to  have  been  between  May  and  September,  1417. 
The  first  Garter  was  William  Bruges,  originally  styled  "  Guyenne  King  of  Arms," 
and  subsequently  "  Garteir  Roy  d'Armes  des  Anglois."  By  the  constitution  of  King 
Henry  VIII.,  it  was  provided  that  Garter  should  be  Sovereign  within  the  College  of 
Arms  above  all  the  other  officers,  that  he  should  have  the  correction  of  Arms,  Crests, 
Cognizances,  and  Devices,  as  well  as  the  power  and  authority  to  grant  Armorial 
Bearings ;  and  that  he  should  "  walk  in  all  places  next  to  Our  Sword,  and  no  one 
between  thena  except  the  Constable  and  Marshal  when  they  carry  the  batons  of  their 
office." 

In  addition,  Garter  King  of  Arms  has  various  other  duties  of  considerable 
importance  to  perform,  such  as  the  regulation  of  precedence,  the  guidance  of 
Coronations,  and  State  Ceremonials,  the  control  and  management  of  all  matters 
concerning  the  Order  of  the  Garter,  &c. 

The  Badge  of  Garter  is  of  gold,  having  on  both  sides  the  Arms  of  St.  George, 
impaled  with  those  of  the  Sovereign,  within  the  Garter  and  Motto,  enamelled  in 
their  proper  colours,  and  ensigned  with  the  royal  crown.  His  sceptre  is  of  silver 
gilt,  about  two  feet  in  length,  the  top  being  of  gold,  of  four  sides  of  equal  height 
but  of  unequal  breadth.  On  the  two  larger  sides  are  the  Arms  of  St.  George 
impaling  the  Sovereign's,  and  on  the  two  lesser  sides,  the  Arms  of  St.  George, 
surrounded  by  the  Garter  and  Motto,  the  whole  ensigned  with  an  imperial  crown. 

The  ancient  office  of  Lyon  King  of  Arms,  long  styled  Lord  Lyon  King  op  Arms, 
the  King  of  Arms  of  Scotland,  is  found  occupying  a  very  prominent  position  so  far 
back  as  1371,  the  year  of  the  coronation  of  Robert  II.,  at  Holyrood.  He  derives  his 
authority  directly  from  the  Sovereign,  and  is  entitled  to  wear  an  oval  badge 
suspended  by  a  broad  green  ribbon.  The  Badge  consists  on  the  obverse  of  the  e&igj 
of  St.  Andrew  bearing  his  cross  before  him,  with  a  thistle  beneath,  all  enamelled  in 
the  proper  colours  on  an  azure  ground.  The  reverse  contains  the  arms  of  Scotland 
having  in  the  lower  parts  of  the  Badge,  a  thistle,  as  on  the  other  side  ;  the  whole 
surmounted  with  an  Imperial  Crown.  Lyon  is  the  chief  Heraldic  Officer  of  the 
Order  of  the  Thistle,  and  enjoys  the  same  rights  and  privileges  in  Scotland  as  Garter 
King  of  Arms  does -in  England.  The  insignia  of  the  Lyon  Office  are,  "Argent,  a 
lion  sejant  full-faced  gules,  holding  in  the  dexter  paw  a  thistle  slipped  vert,  and  in 
the  sinister  an  escutcheon  of  the  second,  on  a  chief  azure  a  St.  Andrew's  cross  of 
the  first." 

In  Ireland,  Ulster  King  of  Arms  has  the  sole  heraldic  jurisdiction,  and  has 
under  him  Athlone  Pursuivant:  he  is,  ex-officio,  Knight  Attendant  on  the  most 
illustrious  Order  of  St.  Patrick. 

The  title  of  "Ulster  King  of  Arms,"  was  created  in  the  reign  of  Edward  VI. 
But  the  office  itself,  under  the  designation  of  "  Ireland  King  of  Arms,"  had  its  origin 
in  more  remote  times,  the  first  express  mention  of  Ireland  King  of  Arms  being  in  the 
sixth  year  of  King  Richard  II.,  1482  ;  Froissart,  vol.  ii.,  calls  him  "  Ckaundos  le  Roy 
d' Irelande.''  A  regular  succession  of  officers  by  the  title  of  "  Ireland  King  of  Arms," 
continued  from  that  time  to  the  reign  of  King  Edward  IV.,  who  promoted  Thomas 
Ashwell  to  that  office. 

This  title  of  "  Ireland,"  as  Sir  Henry  Spelman  and  Sir  James  Ware  say,  was 
afterwards,  by  Edward  VI.,  altered  into  that  of  Ulster.  That  King  himself,  in  his 
journal,  takes  notice  of  it  as  follows — "Feb.  There  was  a  King  of  Arms  made  for 
Ireland,  whose   name  was   Ulster,  and  his  province  was   all    Ireland."     The  patent 


HERALDRY.  xsvii 

passed  under  the  great  seal  of  England,  1553,  with  an  ample  preamble,  in  testimony 
of  the  necessity  and  dignity  of  the  office,  \^hich  was  given  to  Bartholomew  Butler, 
York  Herald.  And  a  warrant  bearing  equal  date  with  the  patent  was  issued  to  Sir  Ralph 
Sadleir,  Knt.,  of  the  King's  Wardrobe,  to  deliver  him  "  one  coat  of  blue  and  crimson 
velvet  embroidered  with  the  gold  and  silver  upon  the  same  with  the  King's  Arms." 
The  Badge  of  "  Ulster "  is  of  gold,  containing  ou  one  side  the  cross  of  St. 
Patrick,  or  as  it  is  described  in  the  statutes,  "  The  cross  gules  of  the  Order  upon  a 
field  argent,  impaled  with  the  Arms  of  the  Realm  of  Ireland,"  and  both  encircled 
with  the  Motto,  "  Quis  Separabit,"  and  the  date  of  the  institution  of  the  Order, 
MDCCLXXXIII.  The  reverse  exhibits  the  Arms  of  the  Office  of  Ulster,  viz.,  "  Or, 
a  cross  gules,  on  a  chief  of  the  last  a  lion  of  England  between  a  harp  and  portcullis,  all 
of  the  first,"  placed  on  a  ground  of  green  enamel,  surrounded  by  a  gold  border  with 
shamrocks,  surmounted  by  an  Imperial  Crown,  and  suspended  by  a  sky  blue  ribband 
from  the  neck. 

The  general  precedence  of  Ulster  King  of  Arms  was  affirmed  by  his  Majesty  King 
William  IV.  by  royal  warrant,  dated  at  St.  James's,  17th  day  of  May,  1835,  which 
was  issued  for  revising  and  making  alterations  in  the  statutes  of  the  Order  of  St. 
Patrick.  After  reciting  that,  by  the  Act  of  Union,  Ireland  became  part  and  parcel  of 
the  United  Kingdom,  and  "  our  King  of  Arms  of  all  Ireland  has  not  had,  since  that 
event,  any  specific  place  or  i)recedence  assigned  to  him  among  our  Kings  of  Arms  by 
special  ordinance  or  royal  authority  ;  We  do  hereby  direct  and  command  that  in  all 
ceremonials  and  assemblies  Ulster  King  of  Arms  shall  have  place  immediately  after 
the  Lord  Lyon,  King  of  Arms  of  Scotland."  Hence,  the  general  precedence  of  the 
Kings  of  Arms  for  Great  Britain  and  Ireland  stands  arranged  thus  :  1st.  Garter  King 
of  Arms  of  England ;  2nd,  Lyon  King  of  Arms  of  Scotland ;  3rd.  Ulster  King  of 
Arms  of  all  Ireland ;  4th.  Clarenceux  King  of  Aims ;  and  5th.  Norroy  King 
of  Arms. 

The  local  precedence  of  Ulster  King  of  Arms  at  the  Irish  Court  was  established 
at  the  institution  of  the  office  in  Ireland,  and  the  place  assigned  him  the  head  of  the 
officers  of  state,  and  next  the  person  of  the  Viceroy.  This  order  of  precedence  was 
afterwards  confirmed  by  successive  Lords  Lieutenants  and  Lords  Justices.  In  an 
ordinance  of  the  Earls  of  Orrery  and  Muontrath,  Iiords  Justices,  dated  at  Dublin 
Castle,  18th  April,  1661,  the  programme  of  precedence  of  the  officers  of  state  at  the 
Irish  Court  was  set  forth  in  detail,  and  stated  therein  to  have  been  "  what  had 
formerly  been  used  "  by  the  "  lords  deputies  or  lords  justices,"  and  the  place  of  the 
King  of  Arms  was  therein  set  forth  as  first  in  order,  and  next  to  the  lords  justices  as 
representatives  of  the  sovereign. 

The  Duke  of  Bolton,  by  an  ordinance  dated  at  Dublin  Castle,  17th  day  of 
August,  1717,  confirmed  that  order  of  precedence,  and  assigned  the  place  of  Ulster 
King  of  Aims  to  be  next  to  the  person  of  his  Grace ;  and  after  Ulster,  the  other 
official  personages  of  the  Court. 

By  another  order,  of  Lord  Carteret,  dated  from  "his  Majesty's  Castle  of  Dublin 
the  29th  day  of  October,  1724,"  the  same  roll  of  precedence  was  affirmed  and  ordered. 
The  last  order  upon  the  subject  of   the  precedence  of  the  person  holding  the  office, 
was  the  royal  warrant  of  his  Majesty  King  William  IV.,  already  mentioned. 

Very  considerable  powers  and  duties,  in  addition  to  the  due  control  and  registra- 
tion of  arms  and  pedigrees,  were  from  time  to  time  conferred  and  imposed  upon  the 
Ulster  King  of  Arms,  in  matters  of  official  proceedings  and  courtly  duties,  which  he 
regulates,  whence  the  archives  of  his  office  present  not  only  an  interesting  record  of 
the  various  ceremonials  observed  from  time  to  time  at  the  Irish  Court,  but  are  also 
landmarks  of  genealogy,  and  consist  not  merely  of  genealogical  materials  and 
references,  but  in  great  measure  of  genealogies  of  families,  full,  ample,  and  complete. 


GLOSSARY. 


The  Shield,  or  Escutcheon, 

Is  the  principal  object  whereon  the  emblems  or  charges  of  Heraldry  are  depicted.  It  Taries  much  in 
shape,  but  is  depicted  triangular,  or,  as  it  is  technically  called,  "  Heater-shaped,"  on  the  oldest 
monuments,  coins,  and  seals.  The  surface  or  space  within  the  bounding  lines  of  the  shield  is  called 
the  Field. 

The  Shield  is  divided  into  the  following  parts,  ABC,  the  chief,  subdivided  into  A' 
the  dexter,  or  right  hand  chief  point ;  B,  the  middle  chief  point ;  C,  the  sinister,  or 
left  hand  chief  point  ;  D,  the  coUar,  or  honour  point ;  E,  the  heart,  or  fess  point ;  F, 
the  nombril,  or  navel  point ;  and  G  H  I,  the  base,  subdivided  into  G-,  the  dexter  base 

^. point ;  H,  the  middle  base  point ;    and  I,  the  sinister  base  point. 

The  Shield  is  distinguished  by  certain  heraldic  colours  called  Tinctures,  separated  by  division 
lines,  and  charged  with  a  variety  of  animals,  real  or  fabulous,  instruments,  and  other  objects,  which 
themselves  bear  the  designation  of  charges. 

The  Tinctures  used  in  Heraldry  are  metals,  colours,  and  furs. 

To  Svlvester  Petra-Sancta,  a  celebrated  Italian  Herald,  is  assigned  the  invention  of  the  lines  and 
points  by'which  the  tinctures  are  expressed. 


The  Metals  are — 

Qr  —  gold  —  known  in  uncoloured 
drawings  and  engravings  by  dots  or 
points. 


Argent  —  silver  —  expressed  by  the 
shield  being  plain. 


The  CoLOUES  are — 

Azure — blue — depicted  by  horizontal 
lines. 


Qules  —  red— depicted  by  perpen- 
dicular lines. 


Vert — green— depicted  by  lines  from 
the  dexter  chief  to  the  siniater  base. 


Sable  —  black  —  depicted  br  cross 
lines,  horizontal  and  perpendicular. 


The  FuBS  are — 

Ermine  —  a  white  field  with  black 
spots. 


Ermines — a  black  field  with  white 
spots. 


/  .  .1.  .   \      Erminois — a  gold  field   with  black 
'■•i-"^.i»  -I  spots. 


Pean — a  black  field  with  gold  spots. 


Vair — composed  originally  of  pieces 
of  fur,  but  now  silver  and  blue,  cut  to 
resemble  the  flower  of  tlie  campanula, 
and  opposed  to  each  other  in  rows  ; 
when  of  diflerent  tinctures,  they  ore 
sjiccified  and  described  vaire. 

Counter  Vair — differs  from  "  vair  " 
by  having  the  bells  or  cups  arranged 
base  against  base,  and  point  against 
point. 


Potent  Counter  Potent — is  composed 
of  figures  like  crutches'  heads.

The  earliest  representation  of  the  indication  of  colour  hy  engraved  lines,  in  England,  is  on  the 
impression  of  a  seal  to  the  death  warrant  of  Charles  I. 

The  old  Heralds  used  more  minute  distinctions  :  the  Arras  of  gentlemen,  esquires,  knights,  and 
baronets,  they  blazoned  by  tinctures  ;  those  of  the  nobility  by  precious  stones  ;  and  those  of  emperors,

The  term  Counterchanged  {French,  de  I'un  en  I'autre)  expresses  that  the  field  is  of 
two  tinctures,  metal  and  colour,  and  that  the  charge  upon  it  partakes  of  both, — the 
charge,  or  part  of  the  charge,  being  of  metal,  which  lies  upon  the  colour  ;  and  the 
charge,  or  part  of  the  charge,  being  of  colour,  which  lies  upon  the  metal.  "  Transmu- 
tation, or  counterchanging,"  says  GuilLim,  "  is  an  intermiiture  of  the  several  tinctures  of 
the  shield  and  charge,  occasioned  by  the  apposition  of  some  one  or  more  lines  of 
partition  over  the  whole." 

It  is  an  inviolable  rule  of  Heraldry,  that  metal  shall  never  be  placed  upon  metal,  nor  colour 
upon  colour ;  that  is  if  the  field  be  of  colour,  the  immediate  charge  must  be  of  metal,  and  vice  versa, 
but  numerous  exceptions  to  this  rule  are  found,  not  only  in  coals  of  a  date  anterior  to  the  systematic 
or  scientific  arrangement  of  Armorial  Bearings,  but  in  many  of  foreign  origin. 


PARTITION  LINES. 

Partition  Lines  are  those  that  divide  the  field  or  charge ;  and  are  always  Right  or  Straight 
Lines,  unless  when  otherwise  described  ;  those  that  vary  from  the  Right  Line  are  called — 

Enffrailed.

embattled  line  with  the  battlements  and  indentures  drawn  to  a  point  instead  of  being  cut  straight, 
and  Potentee,  when  the  edge  of  the  hne  resembles  the  heads  of  crutches.

ORDINARIES. 

All  charges  of  Arms  are  either  proper  or  common  ;  those  charges  are  said  to  be  proper  which  by  a 
certain  property  do  partiriularly  belong  to  the  art  of  Heraldry,  and  are  of  ordinary  use  therein  ;  hence 
they  are  styled  ordinaries  ;  the  common  charges  are  the  representations  of  all  emblems  which  retain 
their  own  names  in  the  blazon.  The  term  here  employed  "  proper  "  must  not  be  confused  with  the 
similar  one  (see  Dictionary  of  Terms)  which  indicates  that  any  heraldic  chargo  in  a  shield,  crest,  or 
supporter,  is  of  its  natural  colour  or  nature. 


The  principal  Ordinaries  are — 

The  Chief  (called  by  French  Heralds,  un  Chef,  signifying  head,  from  the  place  it  occupies 
in  the  shield)  is  the  whole  upper  part  of  the  field,  cut  off  horizontally  by  a  straight  or  any 
other  of  the  partition  lines  used  in  Heraldry,  and  should  comprise  a  third  part*  of  the 
escutcheon. 


The  Pale  is  formed  by  two  lines  drawn  perpendicularly  from  the  top  to  the  base  of  the 
escutcheon,  comprising  a  third  part  of  the  field.  "  The  French,"  observes  Mackenzie, 
"  say  that  Boldiers  of  old  carried  pales  of  wood  to  encamp  them,  which  they  fixed  in  the 
earth,"  and  thus  originated  this  heraldic  bearing. 


The  Send  (Baltheus)  is  formed  by  two  lines  drawn  diagonally  from  the  dexter  chief  to 
the  sinister  base,  and  comprises  the  third  part  of  the  shield.  It  represents  a  shoulder- 
beh,  or  scarf. 


•  The  Chief  and  the  other  ordlnarien  which  nrc  mentioned  as  ocmipying  a  third  part  of  the  escutcheon,  should,  strictlj-

GLOSSARY. 


XXXI 


The  Bend  Sinister  is  the  same  as  the  Bend,  excepting  that  the  lines  are  drawn  from  the 
Binister  chief  to  the  dexter  base. 


The  Fess  is  formed  by  two  horizontal  lines  drawn  across  the  field,  comprising  the 
centre  third  part  of  the  escutcheon.  It  is  emblematic  of  the  military  girdle  worn  round 
the  body  over  the  armour. 


The  Bar  is  a  diminutive  of  the  fess,  and  of  the  same  form,  containing  one-fifth  of  the  field,  and 
may  be  placed  in  any  part  of  the  escutcheon. 


The  Cross  is  composed  of  four  lines,  two  parallel  lines  perpendicular,  and  two  transverse, 
not  drawn  throughout,  but  meeting  by  couples  at  right  angles,  near  about  the  fess  point. 


The  Saltire  (the  Cross  of  St.  Andrew)  is  formed  by  four  lines,  two  drawn  from  the 
dexter  chief  towards  the  sinister  base,  and  the  others  from  the  sinister  chief  towards  the 
dexter  base,  meeting  in  the  middle  by  couples  in  acute  angles,  and  resembling  two  bends, 
dexter  and  sinister,  uniting  or  blending  where  they  cross. 


When  charges  are  borne  upon  ordinaries,  they  are  described  "  on  a  fess,"  "  on  a  chevron,"  "  on  a 
bend,"  &c.,  as  the  case  may  be.  When  charges  are  placed  in  the  position  that  ordinaries  occupy,  they 
are  blazoned  as  "in  pale,"  or  "  in  fess,"  or  "  in  bend,"  &c.,  as  the  case  may  be. 


The  Chevron  (supposed  by  some  writers  to  have  been  adopted  from  the  bow  of  a  war 
saddle,  which  rose  high  in  front)  is  formed  by  two  parallel  lines  drawn  from  the  dexter 
base,  meeting  pyramidically,  about  the  fess  point,  two  other  parallel  lines  drawn  from  the 
sinister  base. 


SUB-OEDIN  ARIES. 

The  Border  {French,  Bordure)  was  formerly  a  mark  of  difference,  to  distinguish  one 
branch  of  a  family  from  another.  It  surrounds  the  field,  occupying  one-fifth  of  it,  and  is 
of  an  equal  breadth  at  every  part. 


The  Orle,  is  an  inner  border  that  does  not  touch  the  extremities  of  the  shield,  the  field 
being  seen  within  and  round  it  on  both  sides.  It  has  the  appearance  of  an  escutcheon 
voided,  or,  as  it  were,  insulated.     The  Tressure  is  a  diminutive  of  the  Orle. 


The  Inescutcheon,  is  a  small  escutcheon,  home  within  the  shield. 


The  Quarter,  is  the  space  formed  by  two  lines,  the  one  drawn  horizontally  from  the 
side  of  the  shield  to  the  centre,  and  the  other  perpendicularly  from  the  chief  to  meet  it  in 
the  same  place,  and  occupies  one-fourth  part  of  the  shield,  as  the  term  implies. 


The  Canton,  derived  from  cantonn6e,  cornered,  is  less  than  the  Quarter,  comprising  only 
the  third  part  of  the  chief,  and  is  formed,  as  the  Quarter,  by  a  perpendicular  line  drawn 
from  the  top  of  the  shield,  meeting  another  drawn  horizontally  from  the  side.  The  Canton 
always  occupies  the  dexter  chief  of  the  escutcheon,  unless  otherwise  expressed. 


^ 


Cheque,  or  Chequy,  is  used  when  the  field,  or  any  armorial  charge,  i^  divided  by  transverse 
lines  perpendicularly  and  horizontally  into  equal  parts  or  squares  alternately  of  different 
tinctures,  like  a  chess-board.  On  ordinaries,  chequy  must  consist  of  at  least  three  ranges 
of  square  pieces.

ORDINAEIES. 

All  charges  of  Arms  are  either  proper  or  common  ;  those  charges  are  said  to  be  proper  which  by  a 
certain  property  do  particularly  belong  to  the  art  of  Heraldry,  and  are  of  ordinary  use  therein  ;  hence 
they  are  styled  ordinaries  ;  the  common  charges  are  the  representations  of  all  emblems  which  retain 
their  own  names  in  the  blazon.  The  term  here  employed  "  proper  "  must  not  be  confused  with  the 
similar  one  (see  Dictionary  of  Terms)  which  indicates  that  any  heraldic  charge  in  a  shield,  crest,  or 
supporter,  is  of  its  natural  colour  or  nature. 


The  principal  Ordinaries  are — 

The  Chief  (called  by  French  Heralds,  un  Chef,  signifying  head,  from  the  place  it  occupies 
in  the  shield)  is  the  whole  upper  part  of  the  field,  cut  off"  horizontally  by  a  straight  or  any 
other  of  the  partition  lines  used  in  Heraldry,  and  should  comprise  a  third  part*  of  the 
escutcheon. 

The  Pale  is  formed  by  two  linos  drawn  perpendicularly  from  the  top  to  the  base  of  the 
escutcheon,  comprising  a  third  part  of  the  field.  "  The  French,"  observes  Mjxckenzie, 
"  say  that  soldiers  of  old  carried  pales  of  wood  to  encamp  them,  which  they  fixed  in  the 
earth,"  and  thus  originated  this  heraldic  bearing. 


The  Bend  (Baltheus)  is  formed  by  two  linos  drawn  diagonally  from  the  dexter  chief  to 
the  sinister  base,  and  comprises  the  third  part  of  the  shield.  It  represents  a  shoulder- 
belt,  or  scarf. 


•  The  Chief  and  the  other  ordinariei  which  nro  mentioned  as  ocnipyinpr  a  third  part  of  the  escutcheon,  should,  strlctlj' 
Gomprlte  that  space;  but  In  armorial  drawings  thiR  rule  is  seldom  adhered  to. 


GLOSS  A.RY. 


The  Bend  Sinister  is  the  same  as  the  Bend,  exceptiag  that  the  lines  are  drawn  from  the 
einister  chief  to  the  dexter  base. 


The  Fess  is  formed  by  two  horizontal  lines  drawn  across  the  field,  comprising  the 
centre  third  part  of  the  escutcheon.  It  is  emblematic  of  the  miUtary  girdle  worn  round 
the  body  over  the  armour. 


The  Bar  is  a  diminutive  of  the  fess,  and  of  the  same  form,  containing  one-fifth  of  the  field,  and 
may  be  placed  in  any  part  of  the  escutcheon. 


The  Cross  is  composed  of  four  lines,  two  parallel  lines  perpendicular,  and  two  transverse, 
not  drawn  throughout,  but  meeting  by  couples  at  right  angles,  near  about  the  fess  point. 


TTie  Saltire  (the  Cross  of  St.  Andrew)  is  formed  by  four  lines,  two  drawn  from  the 
dexter  chief  towards  the  sinister  base,  and  the  others  from  the  sinister  chief  towards  the 
dexter  base,  meeting  in  the  middle  by  couples  in  acute  angles,  and  resembling  two  bends, 
dexter  and  sinister,  uniting  or  blending  where  they  cross. 


"When  charges  are  borne  upon  ordinaries,  they  are  described  "  on  a  fess,"  "  on  a  chevron,"  "  on  a 
bend,"  &c.,  as  the  case  may  be.  When  charges  are  placed  in  the  position  that  ordinaries  occupy,  they 
are  blazoned  as  "  in  pale,"  or  "  in  fess,"  or  "  in  bend,"  &c.,  as  the  case  may  be. 


The  Chevron  (supposed  by  some  writers  to  have  been  adopted  from  the  bow  of  a  war 
saddle,  which  rose  high  in  front)  is  formed  by  two  parallel  lines  drawn  from  the  dexter 
base,  meeting  pyramidically,  about  the  fess  point,  two  other  parallel  lines  drawn  from  the 
sinister  base. 


SUB-ORDINARIES. 

The  Border  {French,  Bordure)  was  formerly  a  mark  of  difference,  to  distinguish  one 
branch  of  a  family  from  another.  It  surrounds  the  field,  occupying  one-fifth  of  it,  and  is 
of  an  equal  breadth  at  every  part. 


The  Orle,  is  an  inner  border  that  does  not  touch  the  extremities  of  the  shield,  the  field 
being  seen  within  and  round  it  on  both  sides.  It  has  the  appearance  of  an  escutcheon 
voided,  or,  as  it  were,  insulated.     The  Tressure  is  a  diminutive  of  the  Orle. 


The  Inescutcheon,  is  a  small  escutcheon,  home  within  the  shield. 


The  Quarter,  is  the  space  formed  by  two  lines,  the  one  drawn  horizontally  from  the 
side  of  the  shield  to  the  centre,  and  the  other  perpendicularly  from  the  chief  to  meet  it  in 
the  same  place,  and  occupies  one-fourth  part  of  the  shield,  as  the  term  implies. 


TTie  Canton,  derived  from  cantonnle,  cornered,  is  less  than  the  Quarter,  comprising  only 
the  third  part  of  the  chief,  and  is  formed,  as  the  Quarter,  by  a  perpendicular  line  drawn 
from  the  top  of  the  shield,  meeting  another  drawn  horizontally  from  the  side.  The  Canton 
always  occupies  the  dexter  chief  of  the  escutcheon,  unless  otherwise  expressed. 


s 


Cheque,  or  Chequy,  is  used  when  the  field,  or  any  armorial  charge,  i^  divided  by  transverse 
lines  perpendicularly  and  horizontally  into  equal  parts  or  squares  alternately  of  different 
tinctures,  like  a  chess-board.  On  ordinaries,  chequy  must  consist  of  at  least  three  ranges 
of  square  pieces. 


GLOSSARY. 


Qri  f         Billets.     Billets  are  oblong  figures.     When  they  exceed  ten,  and  are  irregularly  placed, 
^  \  their  number  is  not  expressed  in  the  blazon ;  but  the  field  or  charge  covered  with  them  is 
said  to  be  billettee. 


The  Paile,  or  Pall,  is  composed  of  the  upper  half  of  a  saltire  and  half  a  pale,  the  latter 
issuiug  from  the  base  point  of  the  shield  to  the  centre. 


The  Oyron,  is  of  a  triangular  form,  composed  of  two  lines,  one  drawn  diagonally  from  the 
dexter  chief  angle  of  the  shield,  and  the  other  horizontally  from  the  dexter  side,  both  meeting  in  the 
centre. 


The  Pile  (representing  a  pile  used  in  the  erection  of  miUtary  bridges),  s-hould  contain, 
if  borne  plain,  one-third  of  the  chief  in  breadth,  and  when  charged,  two-thirds  :  it  issues 
from  the  chief  and  tapers  to  a  point,  like  a  wedge,  towards  the  base. 


The  Flaunch,  or  Flanque,  is  made  on  each  side  of  the  shield,. by  the  segment  of  a 
circular  superfices  drawn  from  the  corner  of  the  chief  to  the  base  point. 


The  Lozenge,  in  a  parallelogram  with  equal  sides,  forming  two  acute  and  two  obtuse 
angles. 


The  Mascle,  is  a  Lozenge  perforated  or  voided,  so  that  the  field  appears  through  the  opening. 

The  Fusil  (representing  a  kind  of  spindle  used  in  spinning)  resembles  the  lozenge  in  shape,  but 
is  somewhat  longer.  The  field  or  charge  when  divided  by  diagonal  lines  dexter  and  sinister,  so  as  to 
form  fusils  all  over  it,  is  denominated  Fusily.  There  are  two  other  well  known,  though  not  modernly 
adopted,  forms  of  the  fusil,  and  more  characteristic  of  the  spindle  which  they  are  intended  to 
represent. 

The  Roundle,  is  of  a  circular  form,  like  a  piece  of  money,  and  assumes  a  different  name  according 
to  its  tincture  :  —

Lozengy,  is  when  the  field  or  any  armorial  charge  is  divided  by  diagonal  linos  trans- 
versely, into  equal  parts  or  lozenges,  alternately  of  different  tinctures. 


The  Fret,  is  composed  of  six  pieces,  viz.,  two  long  ones  in  saltiro,  extending,  as  a  rule, 
but  not  necrflHarily,  to  the  extremity  of  the  field,  and  four  pieces  conjoined  in  the  centre 
in  the  form  of  a  mascle,  interlaced  or  fretted  by  those  in  saltire. 


GLOSSARY. 


XXXUl 


The  Qoutte,  is  the  representation  of  a  drop  of  liquid,  and  assumes  a  different  name  according  to 
its  tincture.  When  yellow,  it  is  called  goutte,  or  gutte,  d'or  ;  when  white,  goutte  d'eau  ;  when  red, 
goutte  de  sang ;  when  blue,  goutte  de  larmes ;  when  green,  goutte  de  vert ;  when  black,  goutte  de 
poix.  If  a  field,  or  charge,  be  covered  with  more  drops  than  ten,  it  is  termed  goutte  d'or,  de  larmes, 
de  poix,  as  the  case  may  be. 


THE  APPENDAGES  OF  THE  SHIELD. 

The  Selmet,  Mantling,  Wreath,  Crest,  Supporters,  and  Motto. 

The  Selmet,  Melme,  Casque,  or  Morion,  has  varied  in  shape  in  different  ages  and  countries.  The 
most  ancient  form  is  the  simplest,  composed  of  iron,  of  a  shape  fitted  to  the  head,  and  flat  upon  the 
top,  with  an  aperture  for  the  light.  This  is  styled  the  Norman  Helmet,  and  appears  on  very  old 
seals,  attached  to  the  Gorget,  a  separate  piece  of  armour  which  covered  the  neck.  In  the  twelfth 
century,  a  change  was  made  to  mark  the  rank  of  the  individual  bearer. 


The  Selmet  assigned  to  Kings  and  Princes  of  the  Blood  Roi/al,  is  full-faced,  composed 
of  gold,  with  the  beauvoir  divided  by  six  projecting  bars,  and  lined  with  crimson. 


The  Selmet  of  the  Nobiliti/  is  of   steel,  with  five  bars   of  gold :    it  is  placed  on  the 
shield  incUning  to  a  profile. 


The  Selmet  of  KnigJifs  and  Baronets-,  is  the  full-faced  steel  helmet,  with  the  visor 
thrown  back,  and  without  bars. 


The   Selmet   of    Esquires,   always  depicted   in    profile,  is   of    steel,  with   the  visor 
closed. 


Each  of  these  Helmets  is  placed  immediately  above  the  escutcheon,  and  supports  the  wreath  on 
which  is  the  crest.

OF  THE  DIFFEEENT  MONARCHS  SINCE  THE  CONQUEST. 


William  I.  (the  Conqueror).  Gu.  two  lions  pass,  guard,  or.  Much 
controversy  has  arisen  regarding  leopards  or  lions,  but  the  latter  would 
appear  the  more  correct.  John,  the  Monk  of  Harmonstier,  in  Tourain,  a 
contemporary  writer,  relates,  that  when  Henry  I.  selected  Geoffrey 
Plantagenet  to  be  his  son-in-law,  "  Clypeus  TiConculos  aiireos  imaginarios 
habens  coUo  ejus  suspenditur." 


William  II.  (Rufos),  second  sou  of  the  Conqueror.     The  same  Arms  as  those  of  his 
father. 

Henry  I.,  third  son  of  the  Conqueror.     Arms  similar  to  those  of  his  predecessor. 


King  Stephen.  This  Prince's  Arms  are  differently  described  :  by  some  he 
is  said  to  have  borne  the  same  Arms  as  his  maternal  grandfather,  William 
the  Conqueror  ;  by  others— Gu.  the  bodies  of  three  lions  pass,  the  necks  with 
men's  bodies  or,  in  form  of  the  sign  of  Sagittarius  ;  by  a  third,  which  is  the 
most  correct,  Gu.  a  Sagittarius  ar.  King  Stephen  is  said  to  have  adopted 
the  latter  bearing  from  the  great  assistance  afforded  him  by  the  archers,  and 
having  entered  the  kingdom  when  the  sun  was  in  the  sign  Sagittarius. 


Ivi  THE  ROYAL  ARMORY. 

<?ri-/^,4^  Henry  II.     Gu.  two  lions  pass,  guard,  or,  previously  to  the  King's 

^^^^r  marriage  with   Eleanor  of   Aquitaine,  when  he  adopted  a  third    lion,  for 

Q^^^^^^  Aquitaine.  On  the  Great  Seal  no  Arms  appear,  the  concave  side  of  the 
aT^;^  /^  shielding  only  exhibited.  Henry  II.  appears  to  have  been  the  first  monarch 
M  ^*^^  U  w^o  "^®^  ^  badge,  he  first  bore  an  escarbuncle  of  gold,  an  ancient  mark  of 
^  *V*^^  ^  hj**  paternal  House  of  Anjou,  and  afterwards  introduced  the  sprig  of  broom 
ff  ^^^  Vi  ^laxit,  or  Planta  Genista,  from  which  his  surname,  Plantagenet,  was  derived, 
>  v!^^^_--^  ^^^^  which  was  a  favourite  badge  with  some  of  his  descendants.  He  is  also 
^k<^o-^S^^^J^    said  to  have  borne  a  jennet  between  two  sprigs  of  broom. 

Richard  I.  {Coeur-de-Lion).  Before  the  Crusade,  Richard's  Great  Seal  shows  but  a  moiety 
of  the  shield  (the  dexter  side)  with  a  lion  ramp,  sinister,  from  which  the  inference  is  that  he 
then  bore  two  lions  combatant.  After  his  exploits  in  the  Holy  Land,  another  Great  Seal 
bears  the  three  lions,  which  henceforward  became  the  hereditary  bearings  of  the  Kings  and 
Queens  of  England.  This  King  bore  as  a  badge  a  broom  branch  with  the  pods  open,  this 
device  appears  on  his  first  Great  Seal ;  he  also  used  a  crescent  surmounted  by  a  star.  Having 
defeated  the  French  at  Gisors,  1198,  and  his  watchword  there  being  "  Dieu  et  mou  droit,"  he 
adopted  it  for  liis  motto,  and  it  continued  the  motto  of  nearly  all  his  successors. 

King  John.  Prior  to  his  elevation  to  the  throne,  when  Earl  of  Mortagne,  in  Normandy, 
this  Prince  bore  two  lions  only  ;  after  his  accession  he  assumed  the  Arms  of  his  predecessor. 
King  John  used  as  a  badge  the  crescent  surmounted  by  a  star,  one  of  the  badges  of  his  prede- 
cessor, Richard  I. 

Henry  III.  bore  the  same  Arms  as  his  father  King  John,  and  used  the  Planta  Genista, 
or  broom  slip,  for  his  badge. 

Edward  I.  bore  the  .same  Arms  as  his  father,  Henry  III.,  and  his  grandfather,  King 
John  ;  his  badge  was,  A  rose  slipped,  the  sialk  vert,  the  petals  or. 

Edward  II.  bore  the  same  as  his  three  immediate  predecessors  ;  his  badge  was  a  golden 
tower,  in  allusion  to  the  arms  of  his  maternal  grandfather,  Ferdinand  III.,  King  of  Castile. 

Edward  III.  This  Prince  assumed  the  title  of  King  of  France,  in  sup- 
posed right  of  his  mother,  Isabel,  daughter  of  Philip  IV.,  who  became  that 
monarch's  sole  heiress,  his  three  sons  having  died  issueless.  Quarterly,  1st 
and  4th,  France,  az.  semue-de  lis  or  ;  2nd  an  3rd,  England,  gu.  three 
lions  pass,  guard,  or.  His  favourite  badge  was  "Sunbeams  issuing  from 
clouds."  Henry  VIII.  caused  this  cognizance  to  be  represented  on  the 
habits  of  Knights  of  the  Garter,  in  memory  of  this  sovereign,  the  founder 
of  the  Order.  Edward  III.  also  bore,  A  trunk  or  stump  of  a  tree  eradicated 
and  couped  or. 

Cre/<t — Upon  a  chapeau  gu.  turned  up  erm.  a  lion  pass,  guard,  crowned 

or.     Edward   III.  was  the  first  English  King  who  bore  a  crest,  which  was  continued  by 

succeeding  monarchs  to  Edward  VI.  inclusive,  on  the  Great  Seal. 

The  Order  of  the  Garter  was  instituted  by  King  Edward,  and  the  ribbon  was  generally 

borne  round  the  Royal  Arms  by  his  successors,  although  not  introduced  on  tlie  Great  Seal  before 

the  time  of  Henry  VIII. 

Richard  II.,  son  of  the  Black  Prince.  This  monarch  bore  the  same  Arms  upon  the  Great 
seal  as  Edward  III.,  but  iiaving  chosen  St.  Edward  the  Confessor  for  his  patron,  he  impaled 
the  Arais  of  the  Confcs-sor,  Az.  a  cross  patonce  Ijetw.  five  martlets  or,  with  the  Arms  of  France 
and  England,  quarterly. 

Richard  wius  tlie  finst  Engli.sh  King  who  used  Supporters,  namely,  two  angels  ;  beneath 
the  shield,  a  white  hart  coiichaut,  gorged  witli  a  gold  coronet,  and  chained  under  a  tree ;  a 
device  from  the  ensigns  of  his  mother  Joan,  the  Fair  Maid  of  Kent,  a  white  hind,  which  he 
lK>re  ;is  a  badtje.  He  likewise  used  other  badges,  viz.,  A  pe;i.scod  branch,  with  the  cods  open 
and  eini)ty,  'Jhe  sun  in  splendour,  and  The  eradicated  st\iinp  of  a  tree  couped  or  ;  he  also 
used  A  white  falcon.  At  a  tournament  held  at  Windsor,  j)revious  to  his  departure  for  Ireland, 
forty  krii{,dits  and  as  many  escpiires  were  apparelled  in  green,  with  a  white  falcon  for  a  badge. 
The  "Sunbeams  issuing  from  clouds,"  the  "  Pl.mita  Genista,''  and  the  "  White  hart,"  appear 
on  the  mantle  and  kiitle  of  his  monumental  ertigy  in  Westminster  Abbey.  An  ostrich  ducally 
gorged  and  chained,  holding  a  [Kission  nail  in  the  bill  and  a  "  knot"  are  on  the  effigy  of  his 
first  Queen,  Anne. 

Hknry  IV.  This  Prince  a[)pears  to  have  taken  the  Great  Seal  of  his  predecessor,  the 
second  RiciiAHr),  merely  sub.stituting  his  own  name  for  that  of  the  late  King,  and  bearing  the 
same  Arms,  with  Enol.vnd  occasionally  in  the  first  quarter. 


THE  ROYAL  ARMORY.  Ivii

Bohuus,  Earls  of  Hereford,  his  first  wife  being  a  daughter  and  co-heir  of  that  House.  Another  of 
his  badges,  "  a  white  antelope,"  is  said  to  have  also  had  a  connection  with  that  house.  Another 
badge  ascribed  to  him  is  a  fox's  tail,  derived  from  his  maternal  ancestors,  the  house  of 
Lancaster.  In  a  MS.  entitled  "  Arms  of  the  Founders  of  the  Order  of  the  Garter,"  the 
badge  of  Henry  Plantagenet,  Duke  of  Lancaster,  represents  a  square  tablet  divided  into  two 
by  a  perpendicular  line  down  the  centre,  coloured  white  and  blue,  on  the  white  appears  a  red 
rose,  and  on  the  blue  a  fox's  brush  in  its  proper  colours.  The  double  SS  was  another  device 
of  this  King,  the  origin  of  which  has  not  been  accounted  for.  His  second  wife,  Joane  of 
Navarre,  used  for  a  cognizance,  an  ermine  collared  and  chained,  with  the  motto,  "  A  tem- 
perance." 

Henry  V.  Quarterly,  France  and  England.  The  Arms  of  France

sinister  supporter. 

Badge — A  device  of  this  King  was  a  panther,  another  ascribed  to  him  was  two  ostrich 
feathers  in  saltire,  one  silver,  the  other  gold.  The  ostrich  feather  was  a  favourite  badge  of  the 
descendants  of  Edward  III.,  borne,  sometimes  one  and  sometimes  three,  the  pen  of  the  feathers 
was  fixed  in  a  scroll  ;  the  coronet  as  now  borne  by  the  Prince  of  Wales  was  added  by 
Edward  VI.  The  badge  of  Henry  VI. 's  Queen,  Margaret  of  Anjou,  was  a  daisy,  with  the 
motto,  "  Humble  et  loiall.  '

— The  crest  (a  red  dragon)  was  that  of  the  ancient  family  of 
De  Kighley  for  many  generations  Lords  of  the  Manor,  whose 
last  representative  (a  female)  married  the  then  head  of  the 
house  of  Cavendish  in  the  time  of  Queen  Elizabeth,  and 
thereby  carried  the  Keighley  estate  into  that  noble  house, 
of  which  the  Duke  of  Devonshire  is  the  head.  His  Grace 
still  letains  the  estate  which  has  belonged  to  his  family  for 
nearly  700  years.  The  serpent  twined  round  the  head  ol 
the  dragon  is  the  Cavendish  crest.  The  circle  with  the 
wavy  blue  lines  at  the  bottom  of  the  crest,  and  al.so  repeated 
in  the  shield,  is  the  heraldic  emblem  of  water  technically 
calleil  a  fountain,  and  refers  to  the  situation  of  Keighley  in 
a  well  watered  valley,  the  streams  of  which  have  greatly 
tended  towards  the  progress  of  the  town,  being  of  great 
Talue  for  manufacturing  purposes.  This  idea  is  also  borne 
out  by  the  motto  "  By  Worth,"  that  being  the  name  of  the 
principal  stream  on  the  banks  of  which  Keighley  is  situate. 
The  shield  is  a  combination  of  the  Keighley  and  Cavendish 
arms.  The  silver  shield  and  black  bar  being  those  of  the 
former  family,  while  the  three  stags'  heads  are  the  cogni- 
zance of  the  Cavendishes.  The  blue  embattled  border 
jurrounding  the  shield  shows  that  the  arms  are  those  of 
an  ancient  town,  which  is  the  case,  Keighley  having 
obtained  iu  original  market  charter  in  the  reign  of 
Edward  I.
